The classical direct product theorem for circuits says that if a Boolean function f : {0, 1}n → {0, 1} is somewhat hard to compute on average by small circuits, then the correspo...

We consider the following question: given a two-argument boolean function f, represented as an N ? N binary matrix, how hard is to determine the (deterministic) communication comp...
