Launching Identity Testing into (Bounded) Space

In this work, we initiate the study of the space complexity of the Polynomial Identity Testing problem (PIT).
First, we observe that the majority of the existing (time-)efficient ``blackbox'' PIT algorithms already give rise to space-efficient ``whitebox'' algorithms for the respective classes of arithmetic formulas via a space-efficient ... more >>>

Randomness Extractors in $\mathrm{AC}^0$ and $\mathrm{NC}^1$: Optimal up to Constant Factors

Revisions: 1

We study extractors computable in uniform $\mathrm{AC}^0$ and uniform $\mathrm{NC}^1$.

For the $\mathrm{AC}^0$ setting, we give a construction such that for every $k \ge n/ \mathrm{poly} \log n, \eps \ge 2^{-\mathrm{poly} \log n}$, it can extract $(1-\gamma)k$ randomness from an $(n, k)$ source for an arbitrary constant ... more >>>

Optimal PSPACE-hardness of Approximating Set Cover Reconfiguration

In the Minmax Set Cover Reconfiguration problem, given a set system $\mathcal{F}$ over a universe and its two covers $\mathcal{C}^\mathrm{start}$ and $\mathcal{C}^\mathrm{goal}$ of size $k$, we wish to transform $\mathcal{C}^\mathrm{start}$ into $\mathcal{C}^\mathrm{goal}$ by repeatedly adding or removing a single set of $\mathcal{F}$ while covering the universe in any intermediate state. ... more >>>
