Hadamard Tensors and Lower Bounds on Multiparty Communication Complexity

Authors: Jeff Ford and Anna Gál

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6111, Complexity of Boolean Functions (2006)


Abstract
We develop a new method for estimating the discrepancy of tensors associated with multiparty communication problems in the ``Number on the Forehead'' model of Chandra, Furst and Lipton. We define an analogue of the Hadamard property of matrices for tensors in multiple dimensions and show that any $k$-party communication problem represented by a Hadamard tensor must have $Omega(n/2^k)$ multiparty communication complexity. We also exhibit constructions of Hadamard tensors, giving $Omega(n/2^k)$ lower bounds on multiparty communication complexity for a new class of explicitly defined Boolean functions.
