Computing abductive explanations is an important problem, which has been studied extensively in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and related disciplines. While computing some abductiv...
The collision problem is to decide whether a function X : {1, . . . , n} {1, . . . , n} is one-to-one or two-to-one, given that one of these is the case. We show a lower bound of...
Abstract. We apply tools coming from singularity theory, as Hamburger-Noether expansions, and from valuation theory, as generating sequences, to explicitly describe order functions...
Systems and Networks on Chips (NoCs) are a prime design focus of many hardware manufacturers. In addition to functional verification, which is a difficult necessity, the chip desi...

We introduce a new technique proving formula size lower bounds based on the linear programming bound originally introduced by Karchmer, Kushilevitz and Nisan [11] and the theory of...
