dedicated to zvi galil's 50th birthday Consider an arithmetic expression of length n involving only the operations [+, \_] and non-negative constants. We prove lower bounds on the depth of any binary computation tree over the same sets of operations and constants that computes such an expression. We
The minimum rank of a graph is the smallest possible rank among all real symmetric matrices with the given graph. The minimum semidefinite rank of a graph is the minimum rank among Hermitian positive semidefinite matrices with the given graph. We explore connections between OS-sets and a lower bound
We study search problems and reducibilities between them with known or potential relevance to bounded arithmetic theories. Our primary objective is to understand the sets of low complexity consequences (esp. Σ b 1 or Σ b 2 ) of theories S i 2 and T i 2 for a small i, ideally in a rather strong sense
