This paper studies the relative proof complexity of variations of a tableau method for Boolean circuit satisfiability checking obtained by restricting the use of the cut rule in s...
We consider the following question: given a two-argument boolean function f, represented as an N ? N binary matrix, how hard is to determine the (deterministic) communication comp...
A special class of oracle circuits with tree-vector form is introduced. It is shown that they can be evaluated in deterministic polynomial-time with a polylog number of adaptive qu...
We consider the deterministic and the randomized decision tree complexities for Boolean functions, denoted DC(f) and RC(f), respectively. A major open problem is how small RC(f) ca...
The paper presents a novel hierarchical approach to test pattern generation for sequential circuits based on an input model of mixed-level decision diagrams. A method that handles,...
