On Disguised Double Horn Functions and Extensions
We consider Boolean functions represented by decision lists, and study their relationships to other classes of Boolean functions. It turns out that the elementary class of 1-decis...

The Nonhomomorphicity of Boolean Functions
Abstract. We introduce the notion of nonhomomorphicity as an alternative criterion that forecasts nonlinear characteristics of a Boolean function. Although both nonhomomorphicity a...

Blockwise Variable Orderings for Shared BDDs
In this paper we consider the problem of characterizing optimal variable orderings for shared OBDDs of two Boolean functions fi = gi i hi, i = 1, 2, where i is an operator from th...

On the Symmetric Property of Homogeneous Boolean Functions
We use combinatorial methods and permutation groups to classify homogeneous boolean functions. The property of symmetry of a boolean function limits the size of the function’s cl...

A Theorem on Sensitivity and Applications in Private Computation
In this paper we prove a theorem that gives an (almost) tight upper bound on the sensitivity of a multiple-output Boolean function in terms of the sensitivity of its coordinates an...
