About the ECCC

What we do and why

The Electronic Colloquium on Computational Complexity (ECCC) was established in 1994 as a forum and repository for the rapid and widespread interchange of ideas, techniques, and research in computational complexity. Posting on the ECCC has the status of a technical report. The Electronic Colloquium on Computational Complexity welcomes papers, short notes, and surveys, with
  • relevance to the theory of computation,
  • clear mathematical profile, and
  • strictly mathematical format.

Central topics

  • models of computation and their complexity.
  • complexity bounds and trade-offs (with the emphasis on lower bounds).
  • complexity theoretic aspects of specific areas including coding theory, combinatorics, cryptography, game theory, logic, machine learning, optimization, property testing, and quantum computation.
For more details see the Call for Papers.

Service Interruption

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.

Group Isomorphism and the Polylogarithmic-Time Hierarchy: Depth-2$\frac{1}{2}$ Circuits and Lower Bounds

In this paper, we investigate the low-depth circuit complexity of Group Isomorphism in the multiplication (Cayley) table model. We prove the first circuit lower bounds for Group Isomorphism: namely, we show that every family of depth-$2$ Boolean circuits deciding Group Isomorphism requires quasipolynomial-size. We complement this with upper bounds of ... more >>>

Algorithmic List Decoding of Reed–Solomon Codes up to Capacity in the Low-Rate Regime

We provide a deterministic polynomial-time list decoding algorithm for Reed-Solomon codes over prime fields that approaches list decoding capacity on every evaluation set in the low (constant) rate regime.

Quantitative Results on Super-Ramanujan Graphs

This work studies super-Ramanujan graphs: \(d\)-regular graphs whose spectral expansion lies strictly below the Ramanujan threshold \(2\sqrt{d-1}\). Although this threshold is asymptotically optimal for fixed \(d\) as \(n\) tends to infinity, it leaves open the finer question of how small the spectral expansion can be as a joint function of ... more >>>
