Say that A is a Hadamard factorization of the identity I_n of size n if the entrywise product of A and the transpose of A is I_n. It can be easily seen that the rank of any Hadamard factorization of the identity must be at least sqrt{n}. Dietzfelbinger et al. raised the question if this bound can be achieved, and showed a boolean Hadamard factorization of the identity of rank n^{0.792}. More recently, Klauck and Wolf gave a construction of Hadamard factorizations of the identity of rank n^{0.613}. Over finite fields, Friesen and Theis resolved the question, showing for a prime p and r=p^t+1 a Hadamard factorization of the identity A of size r(r-1)+1 and rank r over F_p. Here we resolve the question for fields of zero characteristic, up to a constant factor, giving a construction of Hadamard factorizations of the identity of rank r and size (r+1)r/2. The matrices in our construction are blockwise Toeplitz, and have entries whose magnitudes are binomial coefficients.
We give a pseudorandom generator that fools $m$-facet polytopes over ${0,1}^n$ with seed length $mathrm{polylog}(m) cdot log n$. The previous best seed length had superlinear dependence on $m$. An immediate consequence is a deterministic quasipolynom
Let $f: {0,1}^n to {0, 1}$ be a boolean function, and let $f_land (x, y) = f(x land y)$ denote the AND-function of $f$, where $x land y$ denotes bit-wise AND. We study the deterministic communication complexity of $f_land$ and show that, up to a $log
An $ntimes n$ matrix $M$ is called a textit{fooling-set matrix of size $n$} if its diagonal entries are nonzero and $M_{k,ell} M_{ell,k} = 0$ for every $k e ell$. Dietzfelbinger, Hromkovi{v{c}}, and Schnitger (1996) showed that $n le (mbox{rk} M)^2$,
Positive semidefinite rank (PSD-rank) is a relatively new quantity with applications to combinatorial optimization and communication complexity. We first study several basic properties of PSD-rank, and then develop new techniques for showing lower bo
A $left(n,ell,gammaright)$-sharing set family of size $m$ is a family of sets $S_1,ldots,S_msubseteq [n]$ s.t. each set has size $ell$ and each pair of sets shares at most $gamma$ elements. We let $mleft(n,ell,gammaright)$ denote the maximum size of
