Cosmological lower bound on the circuit complexity of a small problem in logic
An exponential lower bound on the circuit complexity of deciding the weak monadic second-order theory of one successor (WS1S) is proved. Circuits are built from binary operations, ...

Lower Bounds for Approximation of Some Classes of Lebesgue Measurable Functions by Sigmoidal Neural Networks
We propose a general method for estimating the distance between a compact subspace K of the space L1 ([0, 1]s ) of Lebesgue measurable functions defined on the hypercube [0, 1]s ,...

Lower bounds for randomized read/write stream algorithms
Motivated by the capabilities of modern storage architectures, we consider the following generalization of the data stream model where the algorithm has sequential access to multi...

Lower Bounds for Additive Spanners, Emulators, and More
An additive spanner of an unweighted undirected graph G with distortion d is a subgraph H such that for any two vertices u, v ∈ G, we have δH(u, v) ≤ δG(u, v) + d. For every...

Contraction and Treewidth Lower Bounds
Edge contraction is shown to be a useful mechanism to improve lower bound heuristics for treewidth. A successful lower bound for treewidth is the degeneracy: the maximum over all ...
