We present a near-optimal reduction from approximately counting the cardinality of a discrete set to approximately sampling elements of the set. An important application of our wo...
We construct an explicit polynomial f(x1, . . . , xn), with coefficients in {0, 1}, such that the size of any syntactically multilinear arithmetic circuit computing f is at least ...
