Set disjointness is a central problem in communication complexity. Here Alice and Bob each receive a subset of an n-element universe, and they need to decide whether their inputs intersect or not. The communication complexity of this problem is relatively well understood, and in most models, including $-$ most famously $-$ interactive randomised communication with bounded error, the problem requires much communication. In this work we were looking for a variation of the set disjointness problem, as natural and simple as possible, for which the known lower bound methods would fail, and thus a new approach would be required in order to understand its complexity. The problem that we have found is a relational one: each player receives a subset as input, and the goal is to find an element that belongs to both players. We call it inevitable intersection.
We study the communication complexity of computing functions $F:{0,1}^ntimes {0,1}^n rightarrow {0,1}$ in the memoryless communication model. Here, Alice is given $xin {0,1}^n$, Bob is given $yin {0,1}^n$ and their goal is to compute F(x,y) subject t
In communication complexity the Arthur-Merlin (AM) model is the most natural one that allows both randomness and non-determinism. Presently we do not have any super-logarithmic lower bound for the AM-complexity of an explicit function. Obtaining such
We study the multiparty communication complexity of high dimensional permutations, in the Number On the Forehead (NOF) model. This model is due to Chandra, Furst and Lipton (CFL) who also gave a nontrivial protocol for the Exactly-n problem where thr
The discrepancy method is widely used to find lower bounds for communication complexity of XOR games. It is well known that these bounds can be far from optimal. In this context Disjointness is usually mentioned as a case where the method fails to gi
A matching is a set of edges in a graph with no common endpoint. A matching $M$ is called acyclic if the induced subgraph on the endpoints of the edges in $M$ is acyclic. Given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, Acyclic Matching Problem seeks for an acy
