We study the complexity of approximating the VC dimension of a collection of sets, when the sets are encoded succinctly by a small circuit. We show that this problem is: 3 -hard to approximate to within a factor 2 ร€ e for all e > 0; \* approximable in AM to within a factor 2; and \* AM-hard to appr

The frequency moments of a sequence containing m i elements of type i, 1 i n, are the numbers F k = n i=1 m k i . We consider the space complexity of randomized algorithms that approximate the numbers F k , when the elements of the sequence are given one by one and cannot be stored. Surprisingly, it
