Krawtchouk polynomials (KPs) and their moments are promising techniques for applications of information theory, coding theory, and signal processing. This is due to the special capabilities of KPs in feature extraction and classification processes. The main challenge in existing KPs recurrence algorithms is that of numerical errors, which occur during the computation of the coefficients in large polynomial sizes, particularly when the KP parameter (p) values deviate away from 0.5 to 0 and 1. To this end, this paper proposes a new recurrence relation in order to compute the coefficients of KPs in high orders. In particular, this paper discusses the development of a new algorithm and presents a new mathematical model for computing the initial value of the KP parameter. In addition, a new diagonal recurrence relation is introduced and used in the proposed algorithm. The diagonal recurrence algorithm was derived from the existing n direction and x direction recurrence algorithms. The diagonal and existing recurrence algorithms were subsequently exploited to compute the KP coefficients. First, the KP coefficients were computed for one partition after dividing the KP plane into four. To compute the KP coefficients in the other partitions, the symmetry relations were exploited. The performance evaluation of the proposed recurrence algorithm was determined through different comparisons which were carried out in state-of-the-art works in terms of reconstruction error, polynomial size, and computation cost. The obtained results indicate that the proposed algorithm is reliable and computes lesser coefficients when compared to the existing algorithms across wide ranges of parameter values of p and polynomial sizes N. The results also show that the improvement ratio of the computed coefficients ranges from 18.64% to 81.55% in comparison to the existing algorithms. Besides this, the proposed algorithm can generate polynomials of an order ∼8.5 times larger than those generated using state-of-the-art algorithms.

This article is motivated by seeking lower bounds on OBDD(∧, w, r) refutations, namely, OBDD refutations that allow weakening and arbitrary reorderings. We first work with 1 - NBP ∧ refutations based on read-once nondeterministic branching programs. These generalize OBDD(∧, r) refutations. There are polynomial size 1 - NBP(∧) refutations of the pigeonhole principle, hence 1-NBP(∧) is strictly stronger than OBDD}(∧, r). There are also formulas that have polynomial size tree-like resolution refutations but require exponential size 1-NBP(∧) refutations. As a corollary, OBDD}(∧, r) does not simulate tree-like resolution, answering a previously open question. The system 1-NBP(∧, ∃) uses projection inferences instead of weakening. 1-NBP(∧, ∃ k is the system restricted to projection on at most k distinct variables. We construct explicit constant degree graphs G n on n vertices and an ε > 0, such that 1-NBP(∧, ∃ ε n ) refutations of the Tseitin formula for G n require exponential size. Second, we study the proof system OBDD}(∧, w, r ℓ ), which allows ℓ different variable orders in a refutation. We prove an exponential lower bound on the complexity of tree-like OBDD(∧, w, r ℓ ) refutations for ℓ = ε log n , where n is the number of variables and ε > 0 is a constant. The lower bound is based on multiparty communication complexity.

Abstract We investigate security properties of two secret-sharing protocols proposed by Fine, Moldenhauer, and Rosenberger in Sections 4 and 5 of [B. Fine, A. Moldenhauer and G. Rosenberger, Cryptographic protocols based on Nielsen transformations, J. Comput. Comm. 4 2016, 63–107] (Protocols I and II resp.). For both protocols, we consider a one missing share challenge. We show that Protocol I can be reduced to a system of polynomial equations and (for most randomly generated instances) solved by the computer algebra system Singular. Protocol II is approached using the technique of Stallings’ graphs. We show that knowledge of {m-1} shares reduces the space of possible values of a secret to a set of polynomial size.

TOWARD RANDOMIZED TESTING OF q-MONOMIALS IN MULTIVARIATE POLYNOMIALS

Given any fixed integer q ≥ 2, a q-monomial is of the format [Formula: see text] such that 1 ≤ sj ≤ q - 1, 1 ≤ j ≤ t. q-monomials are natural generalizations of multilinear monomials. Recent research on testing multilinear monomials and q-monomials for prime q in multivariate polynomials relies on the property that Zq is a field when q ≥ 2 is prime. When q > 2 is not prime, it remains open whether the problem of testing q-monomials can be solved in some compatible complexity. In this paper, we present a randomized O*(7.15k) algorithm for testing q-monomials of degree k that are found in a multivariate polynomial that is represented by a tree-like circuit with a polynomial size, thus giving a positive, affirming answer to the above question. Our algorithm works regardless of the primality of q and improves upon the time complexity of the previously known algorithm for testing q-monomials for prime q > 7.

The notion of probabilistic computation dates back at least to Turing, who also wrestled with the practical problems of how to implement probabilistic algorithms on machines with, at best, very limited access to randomness. A more recent line of research, known as derandomization, studies the extent to which randomness is superfluous. A recurring theme in the literature on derandomization is that probabilistic algorithms can be simulated quickly by deterministic algorithms, if one can obtain impressive (i.e. superpolynomial, or even nearly exponential) circuit size lower bounds for certain problems. In contrast to what is needed for derandomization, existing lower bounds seem rather pathetic. Here, we present two instances where ‘pathetic’ lower bounds of the form n 1+ ϵ would suffice to derandomize interesting classes of probabilistic algorithms. We show the following: — If the word problem over S 5 requires constant-depth threshold circuits of size n 1+ ϵ for some ϵ >0, then any language accepted by uniform polynomial size probabilistic threshold circuits can be solved in subexponential time (and, more strongly, can be accepted by a uniform family of deterministic constant-depth threshold circuits of subexponential size). — If there are no constant-depth arithmetic circuits of size n 1+ ϵ for the problem of multiplying a sequence of n  3×3 matrices, then, for every constant d , black-box identity testing for depth- d arithmetic circuits with bounded individual degree can be performed in subexponential time (and even by a uniform family of deterministic constant-depth AC 0 circuits of subexponential size).
