The nonhomomorphicity of S-boxes
Abstract. In this paper, we introduce the concept of kth-order nonhomomorphicity of mappings or S-boxes as an alternative indicator that forecasts nonlinearity characteristics of a...

STACCATO: disjoint support decompositions from BDDs through symbolic kernels
Abstract— A disjoint support decomposition (DSD) is a representation of a Boolean function F obtained by composing two or more simpler component functions such that the component...

Testing Halfspaces
This paper addresses the problem of testing whether a Boolean-valued function f is a halfspace, i.e. a function of the form f(x) = sgn(w·x−θ). We consider halfspaces over the ...

Synthesis and Optimization of Threshold Logic Networks with Application to Nanotechnologies
We propose an algorithm for efficient threshold network synthesis of arbitrary multi-output Boolean functions. The main purpose of this work is to bridge the wide gap that currentl...

Choosing, Agreeing, and Eliminating in Communication Complexity
We consider several questions inspired by the direct-sum problem in (two-party) communication complexity. In all questions, there are k fixed Boolean functions f1, . . . , fk and ...
