Communication Complexity Towards Lower Bounds on Circuit Depth
Karchmer, Raz, and Wigderson, 1991, discuss the circuit depth complexity of n bit Boolean functions constructed by composing up to d = logn=loglogn levels of k = logn bit boolean

Lower Bounds for the Complexity of Reliable Boolean Circuits with Noisy Gates
We prove that the reliable computation of any Boolean function with sensitivity s requires Ω(s log s) gates if the gates of the circuit fail independently with a fixed positive...

On Matrix Rigidity and Locally Self-Correctable Codes
We describe a new approach for the problem of finding rigid matrices, as posed by Valiant [Val77], by connecting it to the, seemingly unrelated, problem of proving lower bounds f...

Non-uniform ACC Circuit Lower Bounds
The class ACC consists of circuit families with constant depth over unbounded fan-in AND, OR, NOT, and MODm gates, where m > 1 is an arbitrary constant. We prove: • NTIME[2n ...

Shallow Circuits with High-Powered Inputs
A polynomial identity testing algorithm must determine whether an input polynomial (given for instance by an arithmetic circuit) is identically equal to 0. In this paper, we show ...
