Infeasibility of Instance Compression and Succinct PCPs for NP
The OR-SAT problem asks, given Boolean formulae φ1, . . . , φm each of size at most n, whether at least one of the φi’s is satisfiable. We show that there is no reduction fr...

A (De)constructive Approach to Program Checking
Program checking, program self-correcting and program selftesting were pioneered by [Blum and Kannan] and [Blum, Luby and Rubinfeld] in the mid eighties as a new way to gain con...

Property Testing Lower Bounds via Communication Complexity
We develop a new technique for proving lower bounds in property testing, by showing a strong connection between testing and communication complexity. We give a simple scheme for r...

Inapproximability of edge-disjoint paths and low congestion routing on undirected graphs
In the undirected Edge-Disjoint Paths problem with Congestion (EDPwC), we are given an undirected graph with V nodes, a set of terminal pairs and an integer c. The objective is to...

Nearly Tight Bounds for Testing Function Isomorphism
We study the problem of testing isomorphism (equivalence up to relabelling of the variables) of two Boolean functions f, g : {0, 1}n → {0, 1}. Our main focus is on the most stud...
