چکیده

Block sensitivity, which was introduced by Nisan [5], is one of the most useful measures of boolean functions. In this paper we investigate the block sensitivity of weakly symmetric functions (functions invariant under some transitive group action). We prove a Ω(N) lower bound for the block sensitivity of weakly symmetric functions. We also construct a weakly symmetric function which has block sensitivity Õ(N).

ON THE FUNCTION OF BLOCK ANTI DIAGONAL MATRICES AND ITS APPLICATION

The matrix functions appear in several applications in engineering and sciences. The computation of these functions almost involved complicated theory. Thus, improving the concept theoretically seems unavoidable to obtain some new relations and algorithms for evaluating these functions. The aim of this paper is proposing some new reciprocal for the function of block anti diagonal matrices. More...

On weakly e*-open and weakly e*-closed Functions

The aim of this paper is to introduce and study two new classes of functions called weakly $e^{*}$-open functions and weakly $e^{*}$-closed functions via the concept of $e^{*}$-open set defined by Ekici cite{erd1}. The notions of weakly $e^{*}$-open and weakly $e^{*}$-closed functions are weaker than the notions of weakly $beta$-open and weakly $beta$-closed functions defined by Caldas and Nava...

On the Sensitivity Conjecture for Read-k Formulas

Various combinatorial/algebraic parameters are used to quantify the complexity of a Boolean function. Among them, sensitivity is one of the simplest and block sensitivity is one of the most useful. Nisan (1989) and Nisan and Szegedy (1991) showed that block sensitivity and several other parameters, such as certificate complexity, decision tree depth, and degree over R, are all polynomially rela...

On characterizations of weakly $e$-irresolute functions

The aim of this paper is to introduce and obtain some characterizations of weakly $e$-irresolute functions by means of $e$-open sets defined by Ekici [6]. Also, we look into further properties relationships between weak $e$-irresoluteness and separation axioms and completely $e$-closed graphs.
