Arithmetic Circuits: A Chasm at Depth Four
We show that proving exponential lower bounds on depth four arithmetic circuits imply exponential lower bounds for unrestricted depth arithmetic circuits. In other words, for expo...

Lower Bounds and Separations for Constant Depth Multilinear Circuits
We prove an exponential lower bound for the size of constant depth multilinear arithmetic circuits computing either the determinant or the permanent (a circuit is called multiline...

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...

Depth Reduction for Circuits with a Single Layer of Modular Counting Gates
We consider the class of constant depth AND/OR circuits augmented with a layer of modular counting gates at the bottom layer, i.e AC0 ◦MODm circuits. We show that the following ...
