چکیده

We initiate a systematic study of linear sketching over F2. For a given Boolean function f : {0, 1} → {0, 1} a randomized F2-sketch is a distributionM over d×n matrices with elements over F2 such thatMx suffices for computing f(x) with high probability. We study a connection between F2-sketching and a two-player one-way communication game for the corresponding XOR-function. Our results show that this communication game characterizes F2-sketching under the uniform distribution (up to dependence on error). Implications of this result include: 1) a composition theorem for F2-sketching complexity of a recursive majority function, 2) a tight relationship between F2-sketching complexity and Fourier sparsity, 3) lower bounds for a certain subclass of symmetric functions. We also fully resolve a conjecture of Montanaro and Osborne regarding one-way communication complexity of linear threshold functions by designing an F2sketch of optimal size. Furthermore, we show that (non-uniform) streaming algorithms that have to process random updates over F2 can be constructed as F2-sketches for the uniform distribution with only a minor loss. In contrast with the previous work of Li, Nguyen and Woodruff (STOC’14) who show an analogous result for linear sketches over integers in the adversarial setting our result doesn’t require the stream length to be triply exponential in n and holds for streams of length Õ(n) constructed through uniformly random updates. Finally, we state a conjecture that asks whether optimal one-way communication protocols for XOR-functions can be constructed as F2-sketches with only a small loss. ∗University of Pennsylvania, [email protected] †Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [email protected] ‡Indiana University, Bloomington [email protected] ISSN 1433-8092 Electronic Colloquium on Computational Complexity, Revision 2 of Report No. 174 (2016)

One-way Communication and Linear Sketching for Uniform Distribution

This note is prepared based on the article titled “Linear Sketching over F2”(ECCC TR16-174) by Sampath Kannan, Elchanan Mossel and Grigory Yaroslavtsev. We quantitatively improve the parameters of Theorem 1.4 of the above work, as well as an earlier bound of ours. In particular, our result implies that for every ∈ (0, 12 ) and every constant δ > 0, the one-way communication complexity of any Bo...
