In this note we give a version of Hao Huangs proof of the sensitivity conjecture, shedding some light on the origin of the magical matrix $A$ in that proof. For the history of the subject and the importance of this conjecture to the study of boolean functions, we refer to the original paper. Here we only state the main result: Consider the boolean cube $Q_n={0,1}^n$ as a graph, whose edges connect pairs of vertices differing in one coordinate. Then any its induced subgraph on greater than $2^{n-1}$ (the half) vertices has degree of some vertex at least $sqrt{n}$.
We analyze the structure of the algebra N of symmetric polynomials in non-commuting variables in so far as it relates to its commutative counterpart. Using the place-action of the symmetric group, we are able to realize the latter as the invariant po
We introduce a Hopf algebra structure of subword complexes, including both finite and infinite types. We present an explicit cancellation free formula for the antipode using acyclic orientations of certain graphs, and show that this Hopf algebra indu
Let $Lambda$ be the set of partitions of length $geq 0$. We introduce an $mathbb{N}$-graded algebra $mathbb{A}_q^d(Lambda)$ associated to $Lambda$, which can be viewed as a quantization of the algebra of partitions defined by Reineke. The multiplicat
Based on the recent breakthrough of Huang (2019), we show that for any total Boolean function $f$, the deterministic query complexity, $D(f)$, is at most quartic in the quantum query complexity, $Q(f)$: $D(f) = O(Q(f)^4)$. This matches the known sepa
Based on the recent breakthrough of Huang (2019), we show that for any total Boolean function $f$, $bullet quad mathrm{deg}(f) = O(widetilde{mathrm{deg}}(f)^2)$: The degree of $f$ is at most quadratic in the approximate degree of $f$. This is optim
