Randomized vs.Deterministic Decision Tree Complexity for Read-Once Boolean Functions
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...

Lower Bounds on the Randomized Communication Complexity of Read-Once Functions
Abstract. We prove lower bounds on the randomized two-party communication complexity of functions that arise from read-once boolean formulae. A read-once boolean formula is a formu...

Complexity measures and decision tree complexity: a survey
We discuss several complexity measures for Boolean functions: certi cate complexity, sensitivity, block sensitivity, and the degree of a representing or approximating polynomial. ...

Optimal Direct Sum Results for Deterministic and Randomized Decision Tree Complexity
A Direct Sum Theorem holds in a model of computation, when for every problem solving some k input instances together is k times as expensive as solving one. We show that Direct Su...

Learning Monotone Decision Trees in Polynomial Time
We give an algorithm that learns any monotone Boolean function f : {-1, 1}n {-1, 1} to any constant accuracy, under the uniform distribution, in time polynomial in n and in the de...
