Sensitivity cite{CD82,CDR86} and block sensitivity cite{Nisan91} are two important complexity measures of Boolean functions. A longstanding open problem in decision tree complexity, the Sensitivity versus Block Sensitivity question, proposed by Nisan and Szegedy cite{Nisan94} in 1992, is whether these two complexity measures are polynomially related, i.e., whether $bs(f)=O(s(f)^{O(1)})$. We prove an new upper bound on block sensitivity in terms of sensitivity: $bs(f) leq 2^{s(f)-1} s(f)$. Previously, the best upper bound on block sensitivity was $bs(f) leq (frac{e}{sqrt{2pi}}) e^{s(f)} sqrt{s(f)}$ by Kenyon and Kutin cite{KK}. We also prove that if $min{s_0(f),s_1(f)}$ is a constant, then sensitivity and block sensitivity are linearly related, i.e. $bs(f)=O(s(f))$.
Sensitivity conjecture is a longstanding and fundamental open problem in the area of complexity measures of Boolean functions and decision tree complexity. The conjecture postulates that the maximum sensitivity of a Boolean function is polynomially r
We establish a precise relationship between spherical harmonics and Fourier basis functions over a hypercube randomly embedded in the sphere. In particular, we give a bound on the expected Boolean noise sensitivity of a randomly rotated function in t
In this work we introduce, both for classical communication complexity and query complexity, a modification of the partition bound introduced by Jain and Klauck [2010]. We call it the public-coin partition bound. We show that (the logarithm to the ba
We prove upper bounds on deterministic communication complexity in terms of log of the rank and simp
In arXiv:1711.10132 a new approximating invariant ${mathsf{TC}}^{mathcal{D}}$ for topological complexity was introduced called $mathcal{D}$-topological complexity. In this paper, we explore more fully the properties of ${mathsf{TC}}^{mathcal{D}}$ and
