Abstract: We study the Fourier representation of Boolean functions. The goal is to look at the frequency domain of Boolean functions to get complexity properties. Preliminary results indicate that this might be fruitful. In addition to presenting new results, we review some of the most significant work on the subject.

...are not. The average sensitivity is a finer characteristic of Boolean functions which has been studied in a number of papers, see [2, 5, 14]. Our main result consists in a linear lower bound on the average sensitivity of testing square free numbers. More precisely, we...

.... coefficients of Boolean functions and their complexity characteristics have been studied in a number of works, see [2 5, 8, 14, 20, 21, 24, 25]. In particular, these spectral techniques have been successfully applied to the parity function and to threshold functions....
