Communication Complexity Towards Lower Bounds on Circuit Depth
Karchmer, Raz, and Wigderson, 1991, discuss the circuit depth complexity of n bit Boolean functions constructed by composing up to d = logn=loglogn levels of k = logn bit boolean

Limiting Negations in Formulas
Negation-limited circuits have been studied as a circuit model between general circuits and monotone circuits. In this paper, we consider limiting negations in formulas. The minimu...

Structural Detection of Symmetries in Boolean Functions
Functional symmetries provide significant benefits for multiple tasks in synthesis and verification. Many applications require the manual specification of symmetries using spe...

Lower Bounds for the Complexity of Reliable Boolean Circuits with Noisy Gates
We prove that the reliable computation of any Boolean function with sensitivity s requires Ω(s log s) gates if the gates of the circuit fail independently with a fixed positive...

The complexity of Boolean functions from cryptographic viewpoint
Cryptographic Boolean functions must be complex to satisfy Shannon's principle of confusion. But the cryptographic viewpoint on complexity is not the same as in circuit compl...
