Symbolic Listings as Computation
<|reference_start|>Symbolic Listings as Computation: We propose an algebraic model of computation which formally relates symbolic listings, complexity of Boolean functions, and low depth arithmetic circuit complexity. In this model algorithms are arithmetic formula expressing symbolic listings of YES instances of Boolean functions, and computation is executed via partial differential operators. We consider the Chow rank of an arithmetic formula as a measure of complexity and establish the Chow rank of multilinear polynomials with totally non-overlapping monomial support. We also provide Chow rank non-decreasing transformations from sets of graphs to sets of functional graphs.<|reference_end|>
