## Abstract A critical set is a partial latin square that has a unique completion to a latin square, and is minimal with respect to this property. Let __scs__(__n__) denote the smallest possible size of a critical set in a latin square of order __n__. We show that for all __n__, $scs(n)\geq n\lfloo
We prove a lower bound, exponential in the eighth root of the input length, on the size of monotone arithmetic circuits that solve an NP problem related to clique detection. The result is more general than the famous lower bound of Razborov and Andreev, because the gates of the circuit are allowed t
We show that there are functions computable by linear size boolean circuits of depth k that require superpolynomial size perceptrons of depth k&1, for k<log nร(6 log log n). This result implies the existence of an oracle A such that 7 p, A k 3 PP 7 p, A k & 2 and, in particular, this oracle separate
