Lower Bounds Beyond DNF of Parities

Authors: Artur Riazanov, Anastasia Sofronova, and Dmitry Sokolov

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

Abstract
We consider a subclass of AC⁰[2] circuits that simultaneously captures DNF∘Xor and depth-3 AC⁰ circuits. For this class we show a technique for proving lower bounds inspired by the top-down approach. We give lower bounds for the middle slice function, inner product function, and affine dispersers.

Time-Space Tradeoffs of Truncation with Preprocessing

Authors: Krzysztof Pietrzak and Pengxiang Wang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 343, 6th Conference on Information-Theoretic Cryptography (ITC 2025)

Abstract
Truncation of cryptographic outputs is a technique that was recently introduced in Baldimtsi et al. [Foteini Baldimtsi et al., 2022]. The general idea is to try out many inputs to some cryptographic algorithm until the output (e.g. a public-key or some hash value) falls into some sparse set and thus can be compressed: by trying out an expected 2^k different inputs one will find an output that starts with k zeros. Using such truncation one can for example save substantial gas fees on Blockchains where storing values is very expensive. While [Foteini Baldimtsi et al., 2022] show that truncation preserves the security of the underlying primitive, they only consider a setting without preprocessing. In this work we show that lower bounds on the time-space tradeoff for inverting random functions and permutations also hold with truncation, except for parameters ranges where the bound fails to hold for "trivial" reasons. Concretely, it’s known that any algorithm that inverts a random function or permutation with range N making T queries and using S bits of auxiliary input must satisfy S⋅ T ≥ Nlog N. This lower bound no longer holds in the truncated setting where one must only invert a challenge from a range of size N/2^k, as now one can simply save the replies to all N/2^k challenges, which requires S = log N⋅ N /2^k bits and allows to invert with T = 1 query. We show that with truncation, whenever S is somewhat smaller than the log N⋅ N /2^k bits required to store the entire truncated function table, the known S⋅ T ≥ Nlog N lower bound applies.

Space-Bounded Quantum Interactive Proof Systems

Authors: François Le Gall, Yupan Liu, Harumichi Nishimura, and Qisheng Wang

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

Abstract
We introduce two models of space-bounded quantum interactive proof systems, QIPL and QIP_{U}L. The QIP_{U}L model, a space-bounded variant of quantum interactive proofs (QIP) introduced by Watrous (CC 2003) and Kitaev and Watrous (STOC 2000), restricts verifier actions to unitary circuits. In contrast, QIPL allows logarithmically many pinching intermediate measurements per verifier action, making it the weakest model that encompasses the classical model of Condon and Ladner (JCSS 1995). We characterize the computational power of QIPL and QIP_{U}L. When the message number m is polynomially bounded, QIP_{U}L ⊊ QIPL unless P = NP: - QIPL^HC, a subclass of QIPL defined by a high-concentration condition on yes instances, exactly characterizes NP. - QIP_{U}L is contained in P and contains SAC¹ ∪ BQL, where SAC¹ denotes problems solvable by classical logarithmic-depth, semi-unbounded fan-in circuits. However, this distinction vanishes when m is constant. Our results further indicate that (pinching) intermediate measurements uniquely impact space-bounded quantum interactive proofs, unlike in space-bounded quantum computation, where BQL = BQ_{U}L. We also introduce space-bounded unitary quantum statistical zero-knowledge (QSZK_{U}L), a specific form of QIP_{U}L proof systems with statistical zero-knowledge against any verifier. This class is a space-bounded variant of quantum statistical zero-knowledge (QSZK) defined by Watrous (SICOMP 2009). We prove that QSZK_{U}L = BQL, implying that the statistical zero-knowledge property negates the computational advantage typically gained from the interaction.

Robustness for Space-Bounded Statistical Zero Knowledge

Authors: Eric Allender, Jacob Gray, Saachi Mutreja, Harsha Tirumala, and Pengxiang Wang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 275, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2023)

Abstract
We show that the space-bounded Statistical Zero Knowledge classes SZK_L and NISZK_L are surprisingly robust, in that the power of the verifier and simulator can be strengthened or weakened without affecting the resulting class. Coupled with other recent characterizations of these classes [Eric Allender et al., 2023], this can be viewed as lending support to the conjecture that these classes may coincide with the non-space-bounded classes SZK and NISZK, respectively.

Cardiac Trabeculae Segmentation: an Application of Computational Topology (Multimedia Contribution)

Authors: Chao Chen, Dimitris Metaxas, Yusu Wang, and Pengxiang Wu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 77, 33rd International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2017)

Abstract
In this video, we present a research project on cardiac trabeculae segmentation. Trabeculae are fine muscle columns within human ventricles whose both ends are attached to the wall. Extracting these structures are very challenging even with state-of-the-art image segmentation techniques. We observed that these structures form natural topological handles. Based on such observation, we developed a topological approach, which employs advanced computational topology methods and achieve high quality segmentation results.
