Balancing Syntactically Multilinear Arithmetic Circuits
In their seminal paper, Valiant, Skyum, Berkowitz and Rackoff proved that arithmetic circuits can be balanced [VSBR]. That is, [VSBR] showed that for every arithmetic circuit of ...

A Lower Bound for the Size of Syntactically Multilinear Arithmetic Circuits
We construct an explicit polynomial f(x1, . . . , xn), with coefficients in {0, 1}, such that the size of any syntactically multilinear arithmetic circuit computing f is at least ...

Simulation of Arithmetical Circuits by Branching Programs with Preservation of Constant Width and Syntactic Multilinearity
Abstract. We study structural properties of restricted width arithmetical circuits. It is shown that syntactically multilinear arithmetical circuits of constant width can be effici...

Balancing Bounded Treewidth Circuits
Algorithmic tools for graphs of small treewidth are used to address questions in complexity theory. For both arithmetic and Boolean circuits, it is shown that any circuit of size ...

Non-commutative circuits and the sum-of-squares problem
We initiate a direction for proving lower bounds on the size of non-commutative arithmetic circuits. This direction is based on a connection between lower bounds on the size of no...
