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...

Checking Polynomial Identities over any Field: Towards a Derandomization?
We present a Monte Carlo algorithm for testing multivariate polynomial identities over any field using fewer random bits than other methods. To test if a polynomial P(x1 ::: xn) ...

Arithmetic circuits: the chasm at depth four gets wider
In their paper on the "chasm at depth four", Agrawal and Vinay have shown that polynomials in m variables of degree O(m) which admit arithmetic circuits of size 2o(m) al...

Efficient Learning Algorithms Yield Circuit Lower Bounds
We describe a new approach for understanding the difficulty of designing efficient learning algorithms. We prove that the existence of an efficient learning algorithm for a circui...
