Conditional Complexity Hardness: Monotone Circuit Size, Matrix Rigidity, and Tensor Rank

Authors: Nikolai Chukhin, Alexander S. Kulikov, Ivan Mihajlin, and Arina Smirnova

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)

Abstract
Proving complexity lower bounds remains a challenging task: currently, we only know how to prove conditional uniform (algorithm) lower bounds and nonuniform (circuit) lower bounds in restricted circuit models. About a decade ago, Williams (STOC 2010) showed how to derive nonuniform lower bounds from uniform upper bounds: roughly, by designing a fast algorithm for checking satisfiability of circuits, one gets a lower bound for this circuit class. Since then, a number of results of this kind have been proved. For example, Jahanjou et al. (ICALP 2015) and Carmosino et al. (ITCS 2016) proved that if NSETH fails, then E^{NP} has series-parallel circuit size ω(n). One can also derive nonuniform lower bounds from nondeterministic uniform lower bounds. Perhaps the most well-known example is the Karp-Lipton theorem (STOC 1980): if Σ₂ ≠ Π₂, then NP ⊄ P/poly. Some recent examples include the following. Nederlof (STOC 2020) proved a lower bound on the matrix multiplication tensor rank under an assumption that TSP cannot be solved faster than in 2ⁿ time. Belova et al. (SODA 2024) proved that there exists an explicit polynomial family of arithmetic circuit size Ω(n^{δ}), for any δ > 0, assuming that MAX-3-SAT cannot be solved faster than in 2ⁿ nondeterministic time. Williams (FOCS 2024) proved an exponential lower bound for ETHR ∘ ETHR circuits under the Orthogonal Vectors conjecture. Whereas all the lower bounds above are proved under strong assumptions that might eventually be refuted, the revealed connections are of great interest and may still give further insights: one may be able to weaken the used assumptions or to construct generators from other fine-grained reductions. In this paper, we continue developing this line of research and show how uniform nondeterministic lower bounds can be used to construct generators of various types of combinatorial objects that are notoriously hard to analyze: Boolean functions of high circuit size, matrices of high rigidity, and tensors of high rank. Specifically, we prove the following. - If, for some ε and k, k-SAT cannot be solved in input-oblivious co-nondeterministic time O(2^{(1/2+ε)n}), then there exists a monotone Boolean function family in coNP of monotone circuit size 2^{Ω(n / log n)}. Combining this with the result above, we get win-win circuit lower bounds: either E^{NP{}} requires series-parallel circuits of size ω(n) or coNP requires monotone circuits of size 2^{Ω(n / log n)}. - If, for all ε > 0, MAX-3-SAT cannot be solved in co-nondeterministic time O(2^{(1 - ε)n}), then there exist small families of matrices with rigidity exceeding the best known constructions as well as small families of three-dimensional tensors of rank n^{1+Δ}, for some Δ > 0.

Communication Complexity of Equality and Error-Correcting Codes

Authors: Dale Jacobs, John Jeang, Vladimir Podolskii, Morgan Prior, and Ilya Volkovich

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 360, 45th IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2025)

Abstract
We study the public-coin randomized communication complexity of the equality function. The communication complexity of this function is known to be low when the error probability is constant and the players have access to many random bits. The complexity grows, however, if the allowed error probability and the amount of randomness are restricted. We show that public-coin randomized protocols for equality and error-correcting codes are essentially the same object. That is, given a protocol for equality, we can construct a code, and vice versa. We substantially extend the protocol-implies-code direction: any protocol computing a function with a large fooling set can be converted into an error-correcting code. As a corollary, we show that among functions with a fooling set of size s, equality on log s bits has the least randomized communication complexity, regardless of the restrictions on the error probability and the amount of randomness. Finally, we use the connection to error-correcting codes to analyze the randomized communication complexity of equality for varying restrictions on the error probability and the amount of randomness. In most cases, we provide tight bounds. We pinpoint the setting in which tight bounds are still unknown.

Lifting to Randomized Parity Decision Trees

Authors: Farzan Byramji and Russell Impagliazzo

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 353, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2025)

Abstract
We prove a lifting theorem from randomized decision tree depth to randomized parity decision tree (PDT) size. We use the same property of the gadget, stifling, which was introduced by Chattopadhyay, Mande, Sanyal and Sherif [ITCS 23] to prove a lifting theorem for deterministic PDTs. Moreover, even the milder condition that the gadget has minimum parity certificate complexity at least 2 suffices for lifting to randomized PDT size. To improve the dependence on the gadget g in the lower bounds for composed functions, we consider a related problem g_* whose inputs are certificates of g. It is implicit in the work of Chattopadhyay et al. that for any function f, lower bounds for the *-depth of f_* give lower bounds for the PDT size of f. We make this connection explicit in the deterministic case and show that it also holds for randomized PDTs. We then combine this with composition theorems for *-depth, which follow by adapting known composition theorems for decision trees. As a corollary, we get tight lifting theorems when the gadget is Indexing, Inner Product or Disjointness.

Amortized Closure and Its Applications in Lifting for Resolution over Parities

Authors: Klim Efremenko and Dmitry Itsykson

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 339, 40th Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2025)

Abstract
The notion of closure of a set of linear forms, first introduced by Efremenko, Garlik, and Itsykson [Klim Efremenko et al., 2024], has proven instrumental in proving lower bounds on the sizes of regular and bounded-depth Res(⊕) refutations [Klim Efremenko et al., 2024; Yaroslav Alekseev and Dmitry Itsykson, 2025]. In this work, we present amortized closure, an enhancement that retains the properties of original closure [Klim Efremenko et al., 2024] but offers tighter control on its growth. Specifically, adding a new linear form increases the amortized closure by at most one. We explore two applications that highlight the power of this new concept. Utilizing our newly defined amortized closure, we extend and provide a succinct and elegant proof of the recent lifting theorem by Chattopadhyay and Dvorak [Arkadev Chattopadhyay and Pavel Dvorak, 2025]. Namely we show that for an unsatisfiable CNF formula φ and a 1-stifling gadget g: {0,1}^𝓁 → {0,1}, if the lifted formula φ∘g has a tree-like Res(⊕) refutation of size 2^d and width w, then φ has a resolution refutation of depth d and width w. The original theorem by Chattopadhyay and Dvorak [Arkadev Chattopadhyay and Pavel Dvorak, 2025] applies only to the more restrictive class of strongly stifling gadgets. As a more significant application of amortized closure, we show improved lower bounds for bounded-depth Res(⊕), extending the depth beyond that of Alekseev and Itsykson [Yaroslav Alekseev and Dmitry Itsykson, 2025]. Our result establishes an exponential lower bound for depth-Ω(n log n) Res(⊕) refutations of lifted Tseitin formulas, a notable improvement over the existing depth-Ω(n log log n) Res(⊕) lower bound.

Direct Sums for Parity Decision Trees

Authors: Tyler Besselman, Mika Göös, Siyao Guo, Gilbert Maystre, and Weiqiang Yuan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 339, 40th Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2025)

Abstract
Direct sum theorems state that the cost of solving k instances of a problem is at least Ω(k) times the cost of solving a single instance. We prove the first such results in the randomised parity decision tree model. We show that a direct sum theorem holds whenever (1) the lower bound for parity decision trees is proved using the discrepancy method; or (2) the lower bound is proved relative to a product distribution.

On Deciding the Data Complexity of Answering Linear Monadic Datalog Queries with LTL Operators

Authors: Alessandro Artale, Anton Gnatenko, Vladislav Ryzhikov, and Michael Zakharyaschev

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 328, 28th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2025)

Abstract
Our concern is the data complexity of answering linear monadic datalog queries whose atoms in the rule bodies can be prefixed by operators of linear temporal logic LTL. We first observe that, for data complexity, answering any connected query with operators ○/○- (at the next/previous moment) is either in AC⁰, or in ACC⁰\AC⁰, or NC¹-complete, or L-hard and in NL. Then we show that the problem of deciding L-hardness of answering such queries is PSpace-complete, while checking membership in the classes AC⁰ and ACC⁰ as well as NC¹-completeness can be done in ExpSpace. Finally, we prove that membership in AC⁰ or in ACC⁰, NC¹-completeness, and L-hardness are undecidable for queries with operators ◇/◇- (sometime in the future/past) provided that NC¹ ≠ NL and L ≠ NL.

Tropical Proof Systems: Between R(CP) and Resolution

Authors: Yaroslav Alekseev, Dima Grigoriev, and Edward A. Hirsch

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 327, 42nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2025)

Abstract
Propositional proof complexity deals with the lengths of polynomial-time verifiable proofs for Boolean tautologies. An abundance of proof systems is known, including algebraic and semialgebraic systems, which work with polynomial equations and inequalities, respectively. The most basic algebraic proof system is based on Hilbert’s Nullstellensatz [Paul Beame et al., 1996]. Tropical ("min-plus") arithmetic has many applications in various areas of mathematics. The operations are the real addition (as the tropical multiplication) and the minimum (as the tropical addition). Recently, [Bertram and Easton, 2017; Dima Grigoriev and Vladimir V. Podolskii, 2018; Joo and Mincheva, 2018] demonstrated a version of Nullstellensatz in the tropical setting. In this paper we introduce (semi)algebraic proof systems that use min-plus arithmetic. For the dual-variable encoding of Boolean variables (two tropical variables x and x ̅ per one Boolean variable x) and {0,1}-encoding of the truth values, we prove that a static (Nullstellensatz-based) tropical proof system polynomially simulates daglike resolution and also has short proofs for the propositional pigeon-hole principle. Its dynamic version strengthened by an additional derivation rule (a tropical analogue of resolution by linear inequality) is equivalent to the system Res(LP) (aka R(LP)), which derives nonnegative linear combinations of linear inequalities; this latter system is known to polynomially simulate Krajíček’s Res(CP) (aka R(CP)) with unary coefficients. Therefore, tropical proof systems give a finer hierarchy of proof systems below Res(LP) for which we still do not have exponential lower bounds. While the "driving force" in Res(LP) is resolution by linear inequalities, dynamic tropical systems are driven solely by the transitivity of the order, and static tropical proof systems are based on reasoning about differences between the input linear functions. For the truth values encoded by {0,∞}, dynamic tropical proofs are equivalent to Res(∞), which is a small-depth Frege system called also DNF resolution. Finally, we provide a lower bound on the size of derivations of a much simplified tropical version of the {Binary Value Principle} in a static tropical proof system. Also, we establish the non-deducibility of the tropical resolution rule in this system and discuss axioms for Boolean logic that do not use dual variables. In this extended abstract, full proofs are omitted.

Bosonic Quantum Computational Complexity

Authors: Ulysse Chabaud, Michael Joseph, Saeed Mehraban, and Arsalan Motamedi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 325, 16th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2025)

Abstract
In recent years, quantum computing involving physical systems with continuous degrees of freedom, such as the bosonic quantum states of light, has attracted significant interest. However, a well-defined quantum complexity theory for these bosonic computations over infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces is missing. In this work, we lay the foundations for such a research program. We introduce natural complexity classes and problems based on bosonic generalizations of BQP, the local Hamiltonian problem, and QMA. We uncover several relationships and subtle differences between standard Boolean classical and discrete-variable quantum complexity classes, and identify outstanding open problems. Our main contributions include the following: 1) Bosonic computations. We show that the power of Gaussian computations up to logspace reductions is equivalent to bounded-error quantum logspace (BQL, characterized by the problem of inverting well-conditioned matrices). More generally, we define classes of continuous-variable quantum polynomial time computations with a bounded probability of error (CVBQP) based on gates generated by polynomial bosonic Hamiltonians and particle-number measurements. Due to the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, it is not a priori clear whether a decidable upper bound can be obtained for these classes. We identify complete problems for these classes, and we demonstrate a BQP lower bound and an EXPSPACE upper bound by proving bounds on the average energy throughout the computation. We further show that the problem of computing expectation values of polynomial bosonic observables at the output of bosonic quantum circuits using Gaussian and cubic phase gates is in PSPACE. 2) Bosonic ground energy problems. We prove that the problem of deciding whether the spectrum of a bosonic Hamiltonian is bounded from below is co-NP-hard. Furthermore, we show that the problem of finding the minimum energy of a bosonic Hamiltonian critically depends on the non-Gaussian stellar rank of the family of energy-constrained states one optimizes over: for zero stellar rank, i.e., optimizing over Gaussian states, it is NP-complete; for polynomially-bounded stellar rank, it is in QMA; for unbounded stellar rank, it is RE-hard, i.e., undecidable.

Sparsity Lower Bounds for Probabilistic Polynomials

Authors: Josh Alman, Arkadev Chattopadhyay, and Ryan Williams

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 325, 16th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2025)

Abstract
Probabilistic polynomials over commutative rings offer a powerful way of representing Boolean functions. Although many degree lower bounds for such representations have been proved, sparsity lower bounds (counting the number of monomials in the polynomials) have not been so common. Sparsity upper bounds are of great interest for potential algorithmic applications, since sparse probabilistic polynomials are the key technical tool behind the best known algorithms for many core problems, including dense All-Pairs Shortest Paths, and the existence of sparser polynomials would lead to breakthrough algorithms for these problems. In this paper, we prove several strong lower bounds on the sparsity of probabilistic and approximate polynomials computing Boolean functions when 0 means "false". Our main result is that the AND of n ORs of c log n variables requires probabilistic polynomials (over any commutative ring which isn't too large) of sparsity n^Ω(log c) to achieve even 1/4 error. The lower bound is tight, and it rules out a large class of polynomial-method approaches for refuting the APSP and SETH conjectures via matrix multiplication. Our other results include: - Every probabilistic polynomial (over a commutative ring) for the disjointness function on two n-bit vectors requires exponential sparsity in order to achieve exponentially low error. - A generic lower bound that any function requiring probabilistic polynomials of degree d must require probabilistic polynomials of sparsity Ω(2^d). - Building on earlier work, we consider the probabilistic rank of Boolean functions which generalizes the notion of sparsity for probabilistic polynomials, and prove separations of probabilistic rank and probabilistic sparsity. Some of our results and lemmas are basis independent. For example, over any basis {a,b} for true and false where a ≠ b, and any commutative ring R, the AND function on n variables has no probabilistic R-polynomial with 2^o(n) sparsity, o(n) degree, and 1/2^o(n) error simultaneously. This AND lower bound is our main technical lemma used in the above lower bounds.

Nearest Neighbor Complexity and Boolean Circuits

Authors: Mason DiCicco, Vladimir Podolskii, and Daniel Reichman

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 325, 16th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2025)

Abstract
A nearest neighbor representation of a Boolean function f is a set of vectors (anchors) labeled by 0 or 1 such that f(x) = 1 if and only if the closest anchor to x is labeled by 1. This model was introduced by Hajnal, Liu and Turán [2022], who studied bounds on the minimum number of anchors required to represent Boolean functions under different choices of anchors (real vs. Boolean vectors) as well as the analogous model of k-nearest neighbors representations. We initiate a systematic study of the representational power of nearest and k-nearest neighbors through Boolean circuit complexity. To this end, we establish a close connection between Boolean functions with polynomial nearest neighbor complexity and those that can be efficiently represented by classes based on linear inequalities - min-plus polynomial threshold functions - previously studied in relation to threshold circuits. This extends an observation of Hajnal et al. [2022]. Next, we further extend the connection between nearest neighbor representations and circuits to the k-nearest neighbors case. As an outcome of these connections we obtain exponential lower bounds on the k-nearest neighbors complexity of explicit n-variate functions, assuming k ≤ n^{1-ε}. Previously, no superlinear lower bound was known for any k > 1. At the same time, we show that proving superpolynomial lower bounds for the k-nearest neighbors complexity of an explicit function for arbitrary k would require a breakthrough in circuit complexity. In addition, we prove an exponential separation between the nearest neighbor and k-nearest neighbors complexity (for unrestricted k) of an explicit function. These results address questions raised by [Hajnal et al., 2022] of proving strong lower bounds for k-nearest neighbors and understanding the role of the parameter k. Finally, we devise new bounds on the nearest neighbor complexity for several families of Boolean functions.

Randomized Lifting to Semi-Structured Communication Complexity via Linear Diversity

Authors: Vladimir Podolskii and Alexander Shekhovtsov

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 325, 16th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2025)

Abstract
We study query-to-communication lifting. The major open problem in this area is to prove a lifting theorem for gadgets of constant size. The recent paper [Paul Beame and Sajin Koroth, 2023] introduces semi-structured communication complexity, in which one of the players can only send parities of their input bits. They have shown that for any m ≥ 4 deterministic decision tree complexity of a function f can be lifted to the so called semi-structured communication complexity of f∘Ind_m, where Ind_m is the Indexing gadget. As our main contribution we extend these results to randomized setting. Our results also apply to a substantially larger set of gadgets. More specifically, we introduce a new complexity measure of gadgets, linear diversity. For all gadgets g with non-trivial linear diversity we show that randomized decision tree complexity of f lifts to randomized semi-structured communication complexity of f∘g. In particular, this gives tight lifting results for Indexing gadget Ind_m, Inner Product gadget IP_m for all m ≥ 2, and for Majority gadget MAJ_m for all m ≥ 4. We prove the same results for deterministic case. From our result it immediately follows that deterministic/randomized decision tree complexity lifts to deterministic/randomized parity decision tree complexity. For randomized case this is the first result of this type. For deterministic case, our result improves the bound in [Arkadev Chattopadhyay et al., 2023] for Inner Product gadget. To obtain our results we introduce a new secret sets approach to simulation of semi-structured communication protocols by decision trees. It allows us to simulate (restricted classes of) communication protocols on truly uniform distribution of inputs.

Towards Simpler Sorting Networks and Monotone Circuits for Majority

Authors: Natalia Dobrokhotova-Maikova, Alexander Kozachinskiy, and Vladimir Podolskii

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 317, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2024)

Abstract
In this paper, we study the problem of computing the majority function by low-depth monotone circuits and a related problem of constructing low-depth sorting networks. We consider both the classical setting with elementary operations of arity 2 and the generalized setting with operations of arity k, where k is a parameter. For both problems and both settings, there are various constructions known, the minimal known depth being logarithmic. However, there is currently no known efficient deterministic construction that simultaneously achieves sub-log-squared depth, simplicity, and has a potential to be used in practice. In this paper we make progress towards resolution of this problem. For computing majority by standard monotone circuits (gates of arity 2) we provide an explicit monotone circuit of depth O(log₂^{5/3} n). The construction is a combination of several known and not too complicated ideas. Essentially, for this result we gradually derandomize the construction of Valiant (1984). As one of the intermediate steps in our result we need an efficient construction of a sorting network with gates of arity k for arbitrary fixed k. For this we provide a new sorting network architecture inspired by representation of inputs as a high-dimensional cube. As a result we obtain a simple construction that improves previous upper bound of 4 log_k² n to 2 log_k² n. We prove the similar bound for the depth of the circuit computing majority of n bits consisting of gates computing majority of k bits. Note, that for both problems there is an explicit construction of depth O(log_k n) known, but the construction is complicated and the constant hidden in O-notation is huge.

One-Way Communication Complexity of Partial XOR Functions

Authors: Vladimir V. Podolskii and Dmitrii Sluch

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)

Abstract
Boolean function F(x,y) for x,y ∈ {0,1}ⁿ is an XOR function if F(x,y) = f(x⊕ y) for some function f on n input bits, where ⊕ is a bit-wise XOR. XOR functions are relevant in communication complexity, partially for allowing the Fourier analytic technique. For total XOR functions, it is known that deterministic communication complexity of F is closely related to parity decision tree complexity of f. Montanaro and Osbourne (2009) observed that one-way communication complexity D_{cc}^{→}(F) of F is exactly equal to non-adaptive parity decision tree complexity NADT^{⊕}(f) of f. Hatami et al. (2018) showed that unrestricted communication complexity of F is polynomially related to parity decision tree complexity of f. We initiate the study of a similar connection for partial functions. We show that in the case of one-way communication complexity whether these measures are equal, depends on the number of undefined inputs of f. More precisely, if D_{cc}^{→}(F) = t and f is undefined on at most O((2^{n-t})/(√{n-t})) inputs, then NADT^{⊕}(f) = t. We also provide stronger bounds in extreme cases of small and large complexity. We show that the restriction on the number of undefined inputs in these results is unavoidable. That is, for a wide range of values of D_{cc}^{→}(F) and NADT^{⊕}(f) (from constant to n-2) we provide partial functions (with more than Ω((2^{n-t})/(√{n-t})) undefined inputs, where t = D_{cc}^{→}) for which D_{cc}^{→}(F) < NADT^{⊕}(f). In particular, we provide a function with an exponential gap between the two measures. Our separation results translate to the case of two-way communication complexity as well, in particular showing that the result of Hatami et al. (2018) cannot be generalized to partial functions. Previous results for total functions heavily rely on the Boolean Fourier analysis and thus, the technique does not translate to partial functions. For the proofs of our results we build a linear algebraic framework instead. Separation results are proved through the reduction to covering codes.

Constant-Depth Sorting Networks

Authors: Natalia Dobrokhotova-Maikova, Alexander Kozachinskiy, and Vladimir Podolskii

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 251, 14th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2023)

Abstract
In this paper, we address sorting networks that are constructed from comparators of arity k > 2. I.e., in our setting the arity of the comparators - or, in other words, the number of inputs that can be sorted at the unit cost - is a parameter. We study its relationship with two other parameters - n, the number of inputs, and d, the depth. This model received considerable attention. Partly, its motivation is to better understand the structure of sorting networks. In particular, sorting networks with large arity are related to recursive constructions of ordinary sorting networks. Additionally, studies of this model have natural correspondence with a recent line of work on constructing circuits for majority functions from majority gates of lower fan-in. Motivated by these questions, we initiate the studies of lower bounds for constant-depth sorting networks. More precisely, we consider sorting networks of constant depth d and estimate the minimal k for which there is such a network with comparators of arity k. We prove tight lower bounds for d ≤ 4. More precisely, for depths d = 1,2 we observe that k = n. For d = 3 we show that k = ⌈n/2⌉. As our main result, we show that for d = 4 the minimal arity becomes sublinear: k = Θ(n^{2/3}). This contrasts with the case of majority circuits, in which k = O(n^{2/3}) is achievable already for depth d = 3. To prove these results, we develop a new combinatorial technique based on the notion of access to cells of a sorting network.

Polynomial Threshold Functions for Decision Lists

Authors: Vladimir Podolskii and Nikolay V. Proskurin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 248, 33rd International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2022)

Abstract
For S ⊆ {0,1}ⁿ a Boolean function f : S → {-1,1} is a polynomial threshold function (PTF) of degree d and weight W if there is a polynomial p with integer coefficients of degree d and with sum of absolute coefficients W such that f(x) = sign p(x) for all x ∈ S. We study a representation of decision lists as PTFs over Boolean cubes {0,1}ⁿ and over Hamming balls {0,1}ⁿ_{≤ k}. As our first result, we show that for all d = O((n/(log n))^{1/3}) any decision list over {0,1}ⁿ can be represented by a PTF of degree d and weight 2^O(n/d²). This improves the result by Klivans and Servedio [Adam R. Klivans and Rocco A. Servedio, 2006] by a log² d factor in the exponent of the weight. Our bound is tight for all d = O((n/(log n))^{1/3}) due to the matching lower bound by Beigel [Richard Beigel, 1994]. For decision lists over a Hamming ball {0,1}ⁿ_{≤ k} we show that the upper bound on weight above can be drastically improved to n^O(√k) for d = Θ(√k). We also show that similar improvement is not possible for smaller degrees by proving the lower bound W = 2^Ω(n/d²) for all d = O(√k).
