In the last few days, a Denial of Service attack was launched on universities in Israel, leading the administrators of the Israel Academic network to block access to it from the global internet. Consequently, websites such as ECCC have been accessible only from within the Israeli and European academic networks.
It seems that this blocking was just removed, and we hope it will not be put back in the future.
Needless to say, deciding on such blocking is not in our control, but we do apologize for this disruption of service.
We prove a switching lemma for constant-depth circuits over the alphabet $F_p$ with generalized AND/OR gates, extending Tal's Fourier-analytic approach from the Boolean setting. The key new ingredient is a direct computation of the $L_1$ Fourier mass of AND/OR gates over $F_p$, which yields an exact closed-form expression for the ... more >>>
A major open problem at the interface of quantum computing and communication complexity is whether quantum protocols can be exponentially more efficient than classical protocols for computing total Boolean functions; the prevailing conjecture is that they are not. In a seminal work, Razborov (2002) resolved this question for AND-functions of ... more >>>
We study systems of linear equations modulo two in $n$ variables
with three variables in each equation. We assume that the system has
a solution with $pn$ variables taking the value 1 for some value
$00$ it is hard to find a solution
of the same weight that satisfies at ...
