On the Correlation Between Parity and Modular Polynomials

Abstract: We consider the problem of bounding the correlation between parity and modular polynomials over Zq, for arbitrary odd integer q ≥ 3. We prove exponentially small upper bounds for classes of polynomials with certain linear algebraic properties. As a corollary, we obtain exponential lower bounds on the size necessary to compute parity by depth-3 circuits of certain form. Our technique is based on a new representation of the correlation using exponential sums. Our results include Goldmann's result [Go] on the cor… Show more

“…In fact, it is believed that one can still obtain exponentially small upper bounds on the exponential sum even for polynomials of degree O (log k n) for any k. Some evidence supporting this comes from the fact that such a bound exists for O (log k n) degree symmetric polynomials [3]. Furthermore, the bounds obtained by Gál and Trifonov [6] apply to polynomials of very high degree (although they again do not hold for general polynomials).…”

“…These bounds have been improved in subsequent work by Viola and Wigderson [12] and Chattopadhyay [4]. In [6], Gál and Trifonov prove exponentially decreasing upper bounds for special classes of polynomials modulo m.…”

“…Other special classes of polynomials, for example symmetric polynomials, are studied in [CGT96,GT06,BEHL08]. We finally mention that many of the works we discussed, such as Theorems 2, 4, and 7 can be sometimes extended to polynomials modulo m = 2.…”
