Abstract. “Computing the pessimism” means bounding the overestimation produced by an inclusion function. There are two important distinctions with classical error analysis. Fir...
One way to analyse programs is to to derive expressions for their computational behaviour. A time bound function (or worst-case complexity) gives an upper bound for the computatio...
In this paper we prove lower bounds on randomized multiparty communication complexity, both in the blackboard model (where each message is written on a blackboard for all players ...
In this note, we use lower bounds on Boolean multiplicative complexity to prove lower bounds on Boolean circuit complexity. We give a very simple proof of a 7n/3 − c lower bound ...
In this paper we first survey recent advances on phase transition phenomena which are related to natural subclasses of the recursive functions. Special emphasis is put on descent ...
