A Switching Lemma for Small Restrictions and Lower.. - Segerlind, Buss.. (2002)   (5 citations)  (Correct)

.... who showed that for all d there exist #, # 0 so that there are functions on n variables, computable with polynomial size, depth d circuits of bottom fan in n but which require exponential size to compute with depth d circuits of bottom fan in n , and later results of Cai, Chen and Hastad [13], who showed that for each constant d, there exist functions computable with polynomial size, depth d, bottom fan in 2 circuits that require exponential size to compute with depth d circuits with bottom fan in 1, and that for each constant k, there exists a function of n variables computable by ....

Programs Over Semigroups of Dot-Depth One - Alexis Maciel Department (1996)   (3 citations)  (Correct)

.... Along the way, we will give a simple direct argument that the hierarchy de ned by k interleaves strictly with the one de ned by AC k , i.e. 1 1 AC 2 thus re ning a result of [16] This result can also be derived from a special case of a more general theorem in [7]. The fact that semigroups of dot depth one form a p variety allows us to generalize a result of Straubing [19] and P eladeau [13] on regular languages expressible by 1 formulas with arbitrary numerical predicates. They showed that one may restrict to regular predicates without losing any ....

....resulting in a BC that simulates the original k 1 circuit. This contradicts Theorem 1. 2 Note that the separation between BC k , as well as that between k , is superpolynomial. An exponential separation between BC k has been obtained recently by Cai, Chen and H astad [7] by using random restriction techniques as in [9] This implies an exponential separation between AC k , by the same argument as in the proof of Corollary 2. 4 The p variety corresponding to 1 4.1 Algebraic characterizations of d 1 A subset of A is a locally testable language i ....

....d = 1; also, F n d is identically 0 if n is not a power of d. We identify F d with the language f x : F d (x) 1 g. For instance, the language F 1 equals 0 1(0 1) and belongs to Sigma R 1 (hence also to NLOGTIME) but not to Pi U 1 (hence not to DLOGTIME) Lemma 2. 3 (cf. [CC95, CCH95]) For all d 1, a) F d belongs to Sigma R d but not to Pi U d . b) F d is complete for Sigma U d under U m , complete for Sigma dlt d under dlt m , complete for Sigma S d under S m , and complete for Sigma R d under dlt proj . c) For all languages A, if A ....

....BS90] that all addresses are encoded by binary strings of length dlog ne, and after each query, the index tape is indeed erased. Proviso (R) was defined by Ruzzo [Ruz81] for alternating machines. A fourth proviso, intermediate in power between U and S, has also been defined by Cai and Chen et al. [CCDF94, CC95, CCH95], taking an idea from the Block Transfer model of [ACS87] B) for block read write ) M writes two addresses i; j with i j on its index tape, and receives the string x i : x j on that tape, at a cost of dlog ne (j Gamma i) time units. This is equivalent to the B c formalism in ....
