Diagonal Circuit Identity Testing and Lower Bounds
In this paper we give the first deterministic polynomial time algorithm for testing whether a diagonal depth-3 circuit C(x1, . . . , xn) (i.e. C is a sum of powers of linear funct...

Property Testing Lower Bounds via Communication Complexity
We develop a new technique for proving lower bounds in property testing, by showing a strong connection between testing and communication complexity. We give a simple scheme for r...

Quantum lower bounds by quantum arguments
We propose a new method for proving lower bounds on quantum query algorithms. Instead of a classical adversary that runs the algorithm with one input and then modifies the input,...

Detecting Disjoint Inconsistent Subformulas for Computing Lower Bounds for Max-SAT
Many lower bound computation methods for branch and bound Max-SAT solvers can be explained as procedures that search for disjoint inconsistent subformulas in the Max-SAT instance ...
