Lower Bounds for Boolean Circuits with Finite Depth and Arbitrary Gates

We consider bounded depth circuits over an arbitrary field $K$. If the field $K$ is finite, then we allow arbitrary gates $K^n\to K$. For instance, in the case of field $GF(2)$ we allow any Boolean gates. If the field $K$ is infinite, then we allow only polinomials.

For every fixed ... more >>>

Computability and Complexity in Self-Assembly

This paper explores the impact of geometry on computability =
and complexity in
Winfree's model of nanoscale self-assembly. We work in the =
two-dimensional
tile assembly model, i.e., in the discrete Euclidean plane Z x Z. Our =
first
main theorem says that there is a roughly quadratic function f ... more >>>

Fixed Point and Aperiodic Tilings

An aperiodic tile set was first constructed by R.Berger while
proving the undecidability of the domino problem. It turned out
that aperiodic tile sets appear in many topics ranging from
logic (the Entscheidungsproblem) to physics (quasicrystals)

We present a new construction of an aperiodic tile set. The
flexibility of this ... more >>>
