Exponential separations for one-way quantum communication complexity, with applications to cryptography
We give an exponential separation between one-way quantum and classical communication protocols for two partial Boolean functions, both of which are variants of the Boolean Hidden...

On Best-Possible Obfuscation
An obfuscator is a compiler that transforms any program (which we will view in this work as a boolean circuit) into an obfuscated program (also a circuit) that has the same input-...

Learning from Examples and Membership Queries with Structured Determinations
It is well known that prior knowledge or bias can speed up learning, at least in theory. It has proved di cult to make constructive use of prior knowledge, so that approximately c...

Discrepancy and the Power of Bottom Fan-in in Depth-three Circuits
We develop a new technique of proving lower bounds for the randomized communication complexity of boolean functions in the multiparty `Number on the Forehead' model. Our meth...
