ETH-Hardness of Learning Monotone Circuits and Approximating Their Size

Bruno Cavalar, Susanna F. de Rezende, Matthew Gray +1

We show the following hardness results for monotone learning and approximation of monotone circuit size: 1. Under the Randomised Exponential-Time Hypothesis (rETH), it requires tim…

Negations are powerful even in small depth

Bruno Cavalar, Théo Borém Fabris, Partha Mukhopadhyay +2

We study the power of negation in the Boolean and algebraic settings and show the following results. * We construct a family of polynomials in variables, all of whose mon…

Monotone Circuit Complexity of Matching

Bruno Cavalar, Mika Göös, Artur Riazanov +2

We show that the perfect matching function on -vertex graphs requires monotone circuits of size . This improves on the lower bound of Razbo…

Boolean Circuit Complexity and Two-Dimensional Cover Problems

Bruno P. Cavalar, Igor C. Oliveira

We reduce the problem of proving deterministic and nondeterministic Boolean circuit size lower bounds to the analysis of certain two-dimensional combinatorial cover problems. This…

Constant-depth circuits vs. monotone circuits

Bruno P. Cavalar, Igor C. Oliveira

We establish new separations between the power of monotone and general (non-monotone) Boolean circuits: - For every , there is a monotone function in that re…

Monotone Circuit Lower Bounds from Robust Sunflowers

Bruno Pasqualotto Cavalar, Mrinal Kumar, Benjamin Rossman

Robust sunflowers are a generalization of combinatorial sunflowers that have applications in monotone circuit complexity, DNF sparsification, randomness extractors, and recent adva…
