....the proof of this fact here since we could not find a published proof. Fact 3 Every Boolean function can be computed by a depth two (MOD 3 MOD 2 ) circuit. Proof It was known that the OR function of n variables, i.e. n i=1 x i , can be computed by a depth two (MOD 3 MOD 2 ) circuit. See [GT98] for the simple construction of size 2 n and see [KM91] for the slightly effective construction of size 2 n=2 1 . This implies that every conjunction of n literals, that is n i=1 l i where l i 2 fx i ; x i g, also can be computed by a depth two (MOD 3 MOD 2 ) circuit. Let f be an ....
....complexity of circuits with modulo gates using the techniques developed in this note. The following theorem says that even MOD 4 function requires exponential size ( MOD 3 ) l MOD 6 ) circuits for constant l. The generalization of the following theorem is recently proved by Grolmusz and Tardos[GT98] by using the random clustering technique. Theorem 8 Let f be a symmetric function on n variables such that f 6=MOD 213 k for some positive integer k. Suppose that a (MOD 3 1 1 1 MOD 3 MOD 6 ) circuit C of depth l computes f . Then the size of the circuit C is at least (2 3 k =2 0 ....
