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.

Time and Space Efficient Deterministic List Decoding

Authors: Joshua Cook and Dana Moshkovitz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
Error correcting codes encode messages by codewords in such a way that even if some of the codeword is corrupted, the message can be decoded. Typical decoding algorithms for error correcting codes either use linear space or quadratic time. A natural question is whether codes can be decoded in near-linear time and sub-linear space simultaneously. A recent result by Cook and Moshkovitz gave efficient decoders that can uniquely decode Reed-Muller and other codes from a constant fraction (less than half) of corruption. In this work, we address the problem of list decoding in near-linear time and sub-linear space. In the list decoding setting, most of the codeword is corrupted, and one wants to output a short list of potential messages that contains the true message. For any constants γ, τ > 0, we give decoders for Reed-Muller codes that can decode from 1-γ fraction of corruptions in time n^{1+τ} and space n^{τ}. Our decoders work by extending the iterative correction technique of Cook and Moshkovitz. However, that technique, which gradually decreases the number of corruptions in the message, was tailored to the unique decoding setting. We first identify an intermediate problem, codewords list recovery, for which we can make iterative correction work. We then show how to reduce general list decoding to the codewords list recovery problem in efficient time and space. The reduction relies on local correction and testing. In the codewords list recovery problem, the input consists of n unordered lists containing exactly the symbols from L codewords, where a small fraction of the lists is corrupted. The goal is to find the L codewords. In addition, we prove that any linear code with time-space efficient encoding or decoding must be local, in the sense that the codewords satisfy a local linear constraint. This rules out codes like Reed-Solomon from having time-space efficient encoding or decoding.

Efficient Catalytic Graph Algorithms

Authors: James Cook and Edward Pyne

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
We give fast, simple, and implementable catalytic logspace algorithms for two fundamental graph problems. First, a randomized catalytic algorithm for s → t connectivity running in Õ(nm) time, and a deterministic catalytic algorithm for the same running in Õ(n³ m) time. The former algorithm is the first algorithmic use of randomization in CL. The algorithm uses one register per vertex and repeatedly "pushes" values along the edges in the graph. Second, a deterministic catalytic algorithm for simulating random walks which in Õ(m T² / ε) time estimates the probability a T-step random walk ends at a given vertex within ε additive error. The algorithm uses one register for each vertex and increments it at each visit to ensure repeated visits follow different outgoing edges. Prior catalytic algorithms for both problems did not have explicit runtime bounds beyond being polynomial in n.

One-Way Functions and Boundary Hardness of Randomized Time-Bounded Kolmogorov Complexity

Authors: Yanyi Liu and Rafael Pass

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
We revisit the question of whether worst-case hardness of the time-bounded Kolmogorov complexity problem, MINK^{poly} - that is, determining whether a string is "structured" (i.e., K^t(x) < n-1) or "random" (i.e., K^{poly(t)} ≥ n-1) - suffices to imply the existence of one-way functions (OWF). Liu-Pass (CRYPTO'25) recently showed that worst-case hardness of a boundary version of MINK^{poly} - where, roughly speaking, the goal is to decide whether given an instance x, (a) x is K^poly-random (i.e., K^{poly(t)}(x) ≥ n-1), or just close to K^poly-random (i.e., K^{t}(x) < n-1 but K^{poly(t)} > n - log n) - characterizes OWF, but with either of the following caveats (1) considering a non-standard notion of probabilistic K^t, as opposed to the standard notion of K^t, or (2) assuming somewhat strong, and non-standard, derandomization assumptions. In this paper, we present an alternative method for establishing their result which enables significantly weakening the caveats. First, we show that boundary hardness of the more standard randomized K^t problem suffices (where randomized K^t(x) is defined just like K^t(x) except that the program generating the string x may be randomized). As a consequence of this result, we can provide a characterization also in terms of just "plain" K^t under the most standard derandomization assumption (used to derandomize just BPP into P) - namely E ̸ ⊆ ioSIZE[2^{o(n)}]. Our proof relies on language compression schemes of Goldberg-Sipser (STOC'85); using the same technique, we also present the the first worst-case to average-case reduction for the exact MINK^{poly} problem (under the same standard derandomization assumption), improving upon Hirahara’s celebrated results (STOC'18, STOC'21) that only applied to a gap version of the MINK^{poly} problem, referred to as GapMINK^{poly}, where the goal is to decide whether K^t(x) ≤ n-O(log n)) or K^{poly(t)}(x) ≥ n-1 and under the same derandomization assumption.

Pseudodeterministic Algorithms for Minimum Cut Problems

Authors: Aryan Agarwala and Nithin Varma

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
In this paper we present efficient pseudodeterministic algorithms for both the global minimum cut and minimum s-t cut problems. The running time of our algorithm for the global minimum cut problem is asymptotically better than the fastest sequential deterministic global minimum cut algorithm (Henzinger, Li, Rao, Wang; SODA 2024). Furthermore, we implement our algorithm in streaming, PRAM, and cut-query models, where no efficient deterministic global minimum cut algorithms are known.

Total Search Problems in ZPP

Authors: Noah Fleming, Stefan Grosser, Siddhartha Jain, Jiawei Li, Hanlin Ren, Morgan Shirley, and Weiqiang Yuan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
We initiate a systematic study of TFZPP, the class of total NP search problems solvable by polynomial time randomized algorithms. TFZPP contains a variety of important search problems such as Bertrand-Chebyshev (finding a prime between N and 2N), refuter problems for many circuit lower bounds, and Lossy-Code. The Lossy-Code problem has found prominence due to its fundamental connections to derandomization, catalytic computing, and the metamathematics of complexity theory, among other areas. While TFZPP collapses to FP under standard derandomization assumptions in the white-box setting, we are able to separate TFZPP from the major TFNP subclasses in the black-box setting. In fact, we are able to separate it from every uniform TFNP class assuming that NP is not in quasi-polynomial time. To do so, we extend the connection between proof complexity and black-box TFNP to randomized proof systems and randomized reductions. Next, we turn to developing a taxonomy of TFZPP problems. We highlight a problem called Nephew, originating from an infinity axiom in set theory. We show that Nephew is in PWPP∩ TFZPP and conjecture that it is not reducible to Lossy-Code. Intriguingly, except for some artificial examples, most other black-box TFZPP problems that we are aware of reduce to Lossy-Code: - We define a problem called Empty-Child capturing finding a leaf in a rooted (binary) tree, and show that this problem is equivalent to Lossy-Code. We also show that a variant of Empty-Child with "heights" is complete for the intersection of SOPL and Lossy-Code. - We strengthen Lossy-Code with several combinatorial inequalities such as the AM-GM inequality. Somewhat surprisingly, we show the resulting new problems are still reducible to Lossy-Code. A technical highlight of this result is that they are proved by formalizations in bounded arithmetic, specifically in Jeřábek’s theory APC₁ (JSL 2007). - Finally, we show that the Dense-Linear-Ordering problem reduces to Lossy-Code.

Hardness of Range Avoidance and Proof Complexity Generators from Demi-Bits

Authors: Hanlin Ren, Yichuan Wang, and Yan Zhong

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
Given a circuit G: {0, 1}ⁿ → {0, 1}^m with m > n, the range avoidance problem (Avoid) asks to output a string y ∈ {0, 1}^m that is not in the range of G. Besides its profound connection to circuit complexity and explicit construction problems, this problem is also related to the existence of proof complexity generators - circuits G: {0, 1}ⁿ → {0, 1}^m where m > n but for every y ∈ {0, 1}^m, it is infeasible to prove the statement "y ̸ ∈ Range(G)" in a given propositional proof system. This paper connects these two problems with the existence of demi-bits generators, a fundamental cryptographic primitive against nondeterministic adversaries introduced by Rudich (RANDOM '97). - We show that the existence of demi-bits generators implies Avoid is hard for nondeterministic algorithms. This resolves an open problem raised by Chen and Li (STOC '24). Furthermore, assuming the demi-hardness of certain LPN-style generators or Goldreich’s PRG, we prove the hardness of Avoid even when the instances are constant-degree polynomials over 𝔽₂. - We show that the dual weak pigeonhole principle is unprovable in Cook’s theory PV₁ under the existence of demi-bits generators secure against AM/_{O(1)}, thereby separating Jeřábek’s theory APC₁ from PV₁. Previously, Ilango, Li, and Williams (STOC '23) obtained the same separation under different (and arguably stronger) cryptographic assumptions. - We transform demi-bits generators to proof complexity generators that are pseudo-surjective in certain parameter regime. Pseudo-surjectivity is the strongest form of hardness considered in the literature for proof complexity generators. Our constructions are inspired by the recent breakthroughs on the hardness of Avoid by Ilango, Li, and Williams (STOC '23) and Chen and Li (STOC '24). We use randomness extractors to significantly simplify the construction and the proof.

A Hierarchy of Unrestricted Deterministic Objects with Consensus Number 1

Authors: Warren Zhu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 361, 29th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2025)

Abstract
The consensus number of a shared object is the maximum number of processes that can solve consensus in a wait-free manner using copies of the object and registers. In 2016, to prove that an object is not fully characterized by its consensus number, Afek, Ellen and Gafni showed that for all integers n ≥ 2, there exists an infinite sequence of deterministic objects of consensus number n with strictly increasing computational power. In 2018, Daian, Losa, Afek, and Gafni constructed an infinite sequence of deterministic objects of consensus number 1 with strictly decreasing computational power, but the single operation that each of these objects supports is restricted in how it can be used during an execution. As restrictions can have an effect on an object’s consensus number, it was left as an open question whether the same result holds without this restriction. In this paper, we construct an infinite sequence of unrestricted deterministic objects with strictly decreasing computational power. All objects in this sequence have consensus number 1.

Catalytic Computing and Register Programs Beyond Log-Depth

Authors: Yaroslav Alekseev, Yuval Filmus, Ian Mertz, Alexander Smal, and Antoine Vinciguerra

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 345, 50th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2025)

Abstract
In a seminal work, Buhrman et al. (STOC 2014) defined the class CSPACE(s,c) of problems solvable in space s with an additional catalytic tape of size c, which is a tape whose initial content must be restored at the end of the computation. They showed that uniform TC¹ circuits are computable in catalytic logspace, i.e., CL = CSPACE(O(log{n}), 2^{O(log{n})}), thus giving strong evidence that catalytic space gives L strict additional power. Their study focuses on an arithmetic model called register programs, which has been a focal point in development since then. Understanding CL remains a major open problem, as TC¹ remains the most powerful containment to date. In this work, we study the power of catalytic space and register programs to compute circuits of larger depth. Using register programs, we show that for every ε > 0, SAC² ⊆ CSPACE (O((log²n)/(log log n)), 2^{O(log^{1+ε} n)}) . On the other hand, we know that SAC² ⊆ TC² ⊆ CSPACE(O(log²{n}) , 2^{O(log{n})}). Our result thus shows an O(log log n) factor improvement on the free space needed to compute SAC², at the expense of a nearly-polynomial-sized catalytic tape. We also exhibit non-trivial register programs for matrix powering, which is a further step towards showing NC² ⊆ CL.

Towards Free Lunch Derandomization from Necessary Assumptions (And OWFs)

Authors: Marshall Ball, Lijie Chen, and Roei Tell

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

Abstract
The question of optimal derandomization, introduced by Doron et. al (JACM 2022), garnered significant recent attention. Works in recent years showed conditional superfast derandomization algorithms, as well as conditional impossibility results, and barriers for obtaining superfast derandomization using certain black-box techniques. Of particular interest is the extreme high-end, which focuses on "free lunch" derandomization, as suggested by Chen and Tell (FOCS 2021). This is derandomization that incurs essentially no time overhead, and errs only on inputs that are infeasible to find. Constructing such algorithms is challenging, and so far there have not been any results following the one in their initial work. In their result, their algorithm is essentially the classical Nisan-Wigderson generator, and they relied on an ad-hoc assumption asserting the existence of a function that is non-batch-computable over all polynomial-time samplable distributions. In this work we deduce free lunch derandomization from a variety of natural hardness assumptions. In particular, we do not resort to non-batch-computability, and the common denominator for all of our assumptions is hardness over all polynomial-time samplable distributions, which is necessary for the conclusion. The main technical components in our proofs are constructions of new and superfast targeted generators, which completely eliminate the time overheads that are inherent to all previously known constructions. In particular, we present an alternative construction for the targeted generator by Chen and Tell (FOCS 2021), which is faster than the original construction, and also more natural and technically intuitive. These contributions significantly strengthen the evidence for the possibility of free lunch derandomization, distill the required assumptions for such a result, and provide the first set of dedicated technical tools that are useful for studying the question.

List Decoding Quotient Reed-Muller Codes

Authors: Omri Gotlib, Tali Kaufman, and Shachar Lovett

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

Abstract
Reed-Muller codes consist of evaluations of n-variate polynomials over a finite field 𝔽 with degree at most d. Much like every linear code, Reed-Muller codes can be characterized by constraints, where a codeword is valid if and only if it satisfies all degree-d constraints. For a subset X̃ ⊆ 𝔽ⁿ, we introduce the notion of X̃-quotient Reed-Muller code. A function F:X̃ → 𝔽 is a valid codeword in the quotient code if it satisfies all the constraints of degree-d polynomials lying in X̃. This gives rise to a novel phenomenon: a quotient codeword may have many extensions to original codewords. This weakens the connection between original codewords and quotient codewords which introduces a richer range of behaviors along with substantial new challenges. Our goal is to answer the following question: what properties of X̃ will imply that the quotient code inherits its distance and list-decoding radius from the original code? We address this question using techniques developed by Bhowmick and Lovett [Abhishek Bhowmick and Shachar Lovett, 2014], identifying key properties of 𝔽ⁿ used in their proof and extending them to general subsets X̃ ⊆ 𝔽ⁿ. By introducing a new tool, we overcome the novel challenge in analyzing the quotient code that arises from the weak connection between original and quotient codewords. This enables us to apply known results from additive combinatorics and algebraic geometry [David Kazhdan and Tamar Ziegler, 2018; David Kazhdan and Tamar Ziegler, 2019; Amichai Lampert and Tamar Ziegler, 2021] to show that when X̃ is a high rank variety, X̃-quotient Reed-Muller codes inherit the distance and list-decoding parameters from the original Reed-Muller codes.

How to Construct Random Strings

Authors: Oliver Korten and Rahul Santhanam

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

Abstract
We address the following fundamental question: is there an efficient deterministic algorithm that, given 1ⁿ, outputs a string of length n that has polynomial-time bounded Kolmogorov complexity Ω̃(n) or even n - o(n)? Under plausible complexity-theoretic assumptions, stating for example that there is an ε > 0 for which TIME[T(n)] ̸ ⊆ TIME^NP[T(n)^ε]/2^(εn) for appropriately chosen time-constructible T, we show that the answer to this question is positive (answering a question of [Hanlin Ren et al., 2022]), and that the Range Avoidance problem [Robert Kleinberg et al., 2021; Oliver Korten, 2021; Hanlin Ren et al., 2022] is efficiently solvable for uniform sequences of circuits with close to minimal stretch (answering a question of [Rahul Ilango et al., 2023]). We obtain our results by giving efficient constructions of pseudo-random generators with almost optimal seed length against algorithms with small advice, under assumptions of the form mentioned above. We also apply our results to give the first complexity-theoretic evidence for explicit constructions of objects such as rigid matrices (in the sense of Valiant) and Ramsey graphs with near-optimal parameters.

Fully Characterizing Lossy Catalytic Computation

Authors: Marten Folkertsma, Ian Mertz, Florian Speelman, and Quinten Tupker

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

Abstract
A catalytic machine is a model of computation where a traditional space-bounded machine is augmented with an additional, significantly larger, "catalytic" tape, which, while being available as a work tape, has the caveat of being initialized with an arbitrary string, which must be preserved at the end of the computation. Despite this restriction, catalytic machines have been shown to have surprising additional power; a logspace machine with a polynomial length catalytic tape, known as catalytic logspace (CL), can compute problems which are believed to be impossible for L. A fundamental question of the model is whether the catalytic condition, of leaving the catalytic tape in its exact original configuration, is robust to minor deviations. This study was initialized by Gupta et al. (2024), who defined lossy catalytic logspace (LCL[e]) as a variant of CL where we allow up to e errors when resetting the catalytic tape. They showed that LCL[e] = CL for any e = O(1), which remains the frontier of our understanding. In this work we completely characterize lossy catalytic space (LCSPACE[s,c,e]) in terms of ordinary catalytic space (CSPACE[s,c]). We show that LCSPACE[s,c,e] = CSPACE[Θ(s + e log c), Θ(c)] In other words, allowing e errors on a catalytic tape of length c is equivalent, up to a constant stretch, to an equivalent errorless catalytic machine with an additional e log c bits of ordinary working memory. As a consequence, we show that for any e, LCL[e] = CL implies SPACE[e log n] ⊆ ZPP, thus giving a barrier to any improvement beyond LCL[O(1)] = CL. We also show equivalent results for non-deterministic and randomized catalytic space.

New Pseudorandom Generators and Correlation Bounds Using Extractors

Authors: Vinayak M. Kumar

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

Abstract
We establish new correlation bounds and pseudorandom generators for a collection of computation models. These models are all natural generalization of structured low-degree 𝔽₂-polynomials that we did not have correlation bounds for before. In particular: - We construct a PRG for width-2 poly(n)-length branching programs which read d bits at a time with seed length 2^O(√{log n}) ⋅ d²log²(1/ε). This comes quadratically close to optimal dependence in d and log(1/ε). Improving the dependence on n would imply nontrivial PRGs for log n-degree 𝔽₂-polynomials. The previous PRG by Bogdanov, Dvir, Verbin, and Yehudayoff had an exponentially worse dependence on d with seed length of O(dlog n + d2^dlog(1/ε)). - We provide the first nontrivial (and nearly optimal) correlation bounds and PRGs against size-n^Ω(log n) AC⁰ circuits with either n^{.99} SYM gates (computing an arbitrary symmetric function) or n^{.49} THR gates (computing an arbitrary linear threshold function). This is a generalization of sparse 𝔽₂-polynomials, which can be simulated by an AC⁰ circuit with one parity gate at the top. Previous work of Servedio and Tan only handled n^{.49} SYM gates or n^{.24} THR gates, and previous work of Lovett and Srinivasan only handled polynomial-size circuits. - We give exponentially small correlation bounds against degree-n^O(1) 𝔽₂-polynomials which are set-multilinear over some arbitrary partition of the input into n^{1-O(1)} parts (noting that at n parts, we recover all low degree polynomials). This vastly generalizes correlation bounds against degree-d polynomials which are set-multilinear over a fixed partition into d blocks, which were established by Bhrushundi, Harsha, Hatami, Kopparty, and Kumar. The common technique behind all of these results is to fortify a hard function with the right type of extractor to obtain stronger correlation bounds for more general models of computation. Although this technique has been used in previous work, they rely on the model simplifying drastically under random restrictions. We view our results as a proof of concept that such fortification can be done even for classes that do not enjoy such behavior.

Derandomizing Logspace with a Small Shared Hard Drive

Authors: Edward Pyne

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 300, 39th Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2024)

Abstract
We obtain new catalytic algorithms for space-bounded derandomization. In the catalytic computation model introduced by (Buhrman, Cleve, Koucký, Loff, and Speelman STOC 2013), we are given a small worktape, and a larger catalytic tape that has an arbitrary initial configuration. We may edit this tape, but it must be exactly restored to its initial configuration at the completion of the computation. We prove that BPSPACE[S] ⊆ CSPACE[S,S²] where BPSPACE[S] corresponds to randomized space S computation, and CSPACE[S,C] corresponds to catalytic algorithms that use O(S) bits of workspace and O(C) bits of catalytic space. Previously, only BPSPACE[S] ⊆ CSPACE[S,2^O(S)] was known. In fact, we prove a general tradeoff, that for every α ∈ [1,1.5], BPSPACE[S] ⊆ CSPACE[S^α,S^(3-α)]. We do not use the algebraic techniques of prior work on catalytic computation. Instead, we develop an algorithm that branches based on if the catalytic tape is conditionally random, and instantiate this primitive in a recursive framework. Our result gives an alternate proof of the best known time-space tradeoff for BPSPACE[S], due to (Cai, Chakaravarthy, and van Melkebeek, Theory Comput. Sys. 2006). As a final application, we extend our results to solve search problems in CSPACE[S,S²]. As far as we are aware, this constitutes the first study of search problems in the catalytic computing model.
