Lower Bounds and Separations for Constant Depth Multilinear Circuits
We prove an exponential lower bound for the size of constant depth multilinear arithmetic circuits computing either the determinant or the permanent (a circuit is called multiline...

"Resistant" Polynomials and Stronger Lower Bounds for Depth-Three Arithmetical Formulas
We derive quadratic lower bounds on the ∗-complexity of sum-of-products-of-sums (ΣΠΣ) formulas for classes of polynomials f that have too few partial derivatives for the techn...

On the Incompressibility of Monotone DNFs
We prove optimal lower bounds for multilinear circuits and for monotone circuits with bounded depth. These lower bounds state that, in order to compute certain functions, these cir...

Deterministic Restrictions in Circuit Complexity
We study the complexity of computing Boolean functions using AND, OR and NOT gates. We show that a circuit of depth d with S gates can be made to output a constant by setting O(S1...

Bounds on the Size of Small Depth Circuits for Approximating Majority
In this paper, we show that for every constant 0 < < 1/2 and for every constant d 2, the minimum size of a depth d Boolean circuit that -approximates Majority function on n ...
