Much work has been done on learning various classes of "simple" monotone functions under the uniform distribution. In this paper we give the first unconditional lower bo...
We study the polynomial reconstruction problem for low-degree multivariate polynomials over finite field F[2]. In this problem, we are given a set of points x ∈ {0, 1}n and ta...
Various efforts ([?, ?, ?]) have been made in recent years to derandomize probabilistic algorithms using the complexity theoretic assumption that there exists a problem in E = dti...

We introduce a unifying framework for proving that predicate P is hard-core for a one-way function f, and apply it to a broad family of functions and predicates, reproving old res...
Abstract—Consider a communications system where the detector generates a mix of hard and soft outputs, which are then fed into a soft-input channel decoder. In such a setting, it...
