Near-optimal extractors against quantum storage
We give near-optimal constructions of extractors secure against quantum bounded-storage adversaries. One instantiation gives the first such extractor to achieve an output length (...

Non-commutative circuits and the sum-of-squares problem
We initiate a direction for proving lower bounds on the size of non-commutative arithmetic circuits. This direction is based on a connection between lower bounds on the size of no...

Hardness Amplification in Proof Complexity
We present a generic method for converting any family of unsatisfiable CNF formulas that require large resolution rank into CNF formulas whose refutation requires large rank for p...

Odd Cycle Packing
We study the ratio between the minimum size of an odd cycle vertex transversal and the maximum size of a collection of vertex-disjoint odd cycles in a planar graph. We show that th...

On the Hardness of the Noncommutative Determinant
In this paper we study the computational complexity of computing the noncommutative determinant. We first consider the arithmetic circuit complexity of computing the noncommutativ...
