Locally decodable codes with 2 queries and polynomial identity testing for depth 3 circuits
In this work we study two, seemingly unrelated, notions. Locally Decodable Codes (LDCs) are codes that allow the recovery of each message bit from a constant number of entries of ...

Constant Depth Circuits, Fourier Transform, and Learnability
In this paper, Boolean functions in ,4C0 are studied using harmonic analysis on the cube. The main result is that an ACO Boolean function has almost all of its “power spectrum”...

An Almost Optimal Rank Bound for Depth-3 Identities
—We show that the rank of a depth-3 circuit (over any field) that is simple, minimal and zero is at most O(k3 log d). The previous best rank bound known was 2O(k2 ) (log d)k−2...

Hardness vs. Randomness within Alternating Time
We study the complexity of building pseudorandom generators (PRGs) with logarithmic seed length from hard functions. We show that, starting from a function f : {0, 1}l → {0, 1} ...
