Boolean networks with veto functions.
Boolean networks are discrete dynamical systems for modeling regulation and signaling in living cells. We investigate a particular class of Boolean functions with inhibiting inputs exerting a veto (forced zero) on the output. We give analytical expressions for the sensitivity of these functions and provide evidence for their role in natural systems. In an intracellular signal transduction netwo...
متن کاملOn Constant-Depth Canonical Boolean Circuits for Computing Multilinear Functions
We consider new complexity measures for the model of multilinear circuits with general multilinear gates introduced by Goldreich and Wigderson (ECCC, 2013). These complexity measures are related to the size of canonical constant-depth Boolean circuits, which extend the definition of canonical depth-three Boolean circuits. We obtain matching lower and upper bound on the size of canonical constan...
متن کاملComputing on Anonymous Networks: Part I-Characterizing the Solvable Cases
In anonymous networks, the processors do not have identity numbers. We investigate the following representative problems on anonymous networks: (a) the leader election problem, (b) the edge election problem, (c) the spanning tree construction problem, and (d) the topology recognition problem. On a given network, the above problems may or may not be solvable, depending on the amount of informati...
متن کاملComputing on Anonymous Networks with Sense of Direction
Sense of direction refers to a set of global consistency constraints of the local labeling of the edges of a network. Sense of direction has a large impact on the communication complexity of many distributed problems. In this paper, we study the impact that sense of direction has on computability and we focus on anonymous networks. We establish several results. In particular, we prove that with...
متن کاملComputing on Anonymous Quantum Network
This paper considers distributed computing on an anonymous quantum network, a network in which no party has a unique identifier and quantum communication and computation are available. It is proved that the leader election problem can exactly (i.e., without error in bounded time) be solved with at most the same complexity up to a constant factor as that of exactly computing symmetric functions ...
