The cost of fault tolerance in multi-party communication complexity
Multi-party communication complexity involves distributed computation of a function over inputs held by multiple distributed players. A key focus of distributed computing research...

Rounds in Communication Complexity Revisited
The k-round two-party communication complexity was studied in the deterministic model by [14] and [4] and in the probabilistic model by [20] and [6]. We present new lower bounds th...

Monotone Circuits for Matching Require Linear Depth
We prove that monotone circuits computing the perfect matching function on n-vertex graphs require (n) depth. This implies an exponential gap between the depth of monotone and non...
