Lower bounds for local search by quantum arguments
The problem of finding a local minimum of a black-box function is central for understanding local search as well as quantum adiabatic algorithms. For functions on the Boolean hype...

Quantum lower bound for the collision problem
The collision problem is to decide whether a function X : {1, . . . , n} {1, . . . , n} is one-to-one or two-to-one, given that one of these is the case. We show a lower bound of...

Lower bounds and heuristic algorithms for the k
We consider the problem of partitioning a set of positive integers values into a given number of subsets, each having an associated cardinality limit, so that the maximum sum of v...

Lower bound for deterministic semantic-incremental branching programs solving GEN
We answer a problem posed in [GKM08] regarding a restricted model of small-space computation, tailored for solving the GEN problem. They define two variants of “incremental bra...

Linear Level Lasserre Lower Bounds for Certain k-CSPs
We show that for k ≥ 3 even the Ω(n) level of the Lasserre hierarchy cannot disprove a random k-CSP instance over any predicate type implied by k-XOR constraints, for example ...
