On Rank vs. Communication Complexity

This paper concerns the open problem of Lovász and Saks regarding the relationship between the communication complexity of a boolean function and the rank of the associated matrix. We first give an example exhibiting the largest gap known. We then prove two related theorems.

Some notes on two lower bound methods for communication complexity

We compare two methods for proving lower bounds on standard two-party model of communication complexity, the Rank method and Fooling set method. We present bounds on the number of functions f(x, y), x, y ∈ {0, 1}n, with rank of size k and fooling set of size at least k, k ∈ [1, 2n]. Using these bounds we give a novel proof that almost all Boolean functions f are hard, i.e., the communication co...

Exponential Quantum-Classical Gaps in Multiparty Nondeterministic Communication Complexity

There are three different types of nondeterminism in quantum communication: i) NQP-communication, ii) QMA-communication, and iii) QCMA-communication. In this paper we show that multiparty NQP-communication can be exponentially stronger than QCMA-communication. This also implies an exponential separation with respect to classical multiparty nondeterministic communication complexity. We argue tha...

An additive combinatorics approach to the log-rank conjecture in communication complexity

For a {0, 1}-valued matrixM let CC(M) denote the deterministic communication complexity of the boolean function associated with M . The log-rank conjecture of Lovász and Saks [FOCS 1988] states that CC(M) ≤ logc(rank(M)) for some absolute constant c where rank(M) denotes the rank of M over the field of real numbers. We show that CC(M) ≤ c · rank(M)/ log rank(M) for some absolute constant c, ass...

Monotone Rank and Separations in Computational Complexity

In the paper, we introduce the concept of monotone rank, and using it as a powerful tool, we obtain several important and strong separation results in computational complexity. – We show a super-exponential separation between monotone and non-monotone computation in the non-commutative model, and thus give the answer to a longstanding open problem posed by Nisan [Nis91] in algebraic complexity....
