Property Testing Lower Bounds via Communication Complexity
We develop a new technique for proving lower bounds in property testing, by showing a strong connection between testing and communication complexity. We give a simple scheme for r...

The Quantum Adversary Method and Classical Formula Size Lower Bounds
We introduce two new complexity measures for Boolean functions, which we name sumPI and maxPI. The quantity sumPI has been emerging through a line of research on quantum query com...

Empirical Lower Bounds on the Complexity of Translational Equivalence
This paper describes a study of the patterns of translational equivalence exhibited by a variety of bitexts. The study found that the complexity of these patterns in every bitext ...

Query Complexity Lower Bounds for Reconstruction of Codes
We investigate the problem of local reconstruction, as defined by Saks and Seshadhri (2008), in the context of error correcting codes. The first problem we address is that of me...

Lower Bounds for the Complexity of Monadic Second-Order Logic
Courcelle's famous theorem from 1990 states that any property of graphs definable in monadic second-order logic (MSO2) can be decided in linear time on any class of graphs of ...
