Lower Bounds for Testing Function Isomorphism
—We prove new lower bounds in the area of property testing of boolean functions. Specifically, we study the problem of testing whether a boolean function f is isomorphic to a ...

Two lower bounds for self-assemblies at temperature 1
Abstract—Using the Tile Assembly Model proposed by Rothemund and Winfree, we give two lower bounds on the minimum number of tile types needed to uniquely assemble a shape at temp...

A tight lower bound for parity in noisy communication networks
We show a tight lower bound of (N log log N) on the number of transmission required to compute the parity of N bits (with constant error) in a network of N randomly placed sensors...

From a static impossibility to an adaptive lower bound: the complexity of early deciding set agreement
Set agreement, where processors decisions constitute a set of outputs, is notoriously harder to analyze than consensus where the decisions are restricted to a single output. This ...
