  • Variable-Arity Generic Interfaces
    Variable-Arity Generic Interfaces T. Stephen Strickland, Richard Cobbe, and Matthias Felleisen College of Computer and Information Science Northeastern University Boston, MA 02115 [email protected] Abstract. Many programming languages provide variable-arity func- tions. Such functions consume a fixed number of required arguments plus an unspecified number of \rest arguments." The C++ standardiza- tion committee has recently lifted this flexibility from terms to types with the adoption of a proposal for variable-arity templates. In this paper we propose an extension of Java with variable-arity interfaces. We present some programming examples that can benefit from variable-arity generic interfaces in Java; a type-safe model of such a language; and a reduction to the core language. 1 Introduction In April of 2007 the C++ standardization committee adopted Gregor and J¨arvi's proposal [1] for variable-length type arguments in class templates, which pre- sented the idea and its implementation but did not include a formal model or soundness proof. As a result, the relevant constructs will appear in the upcom- ing C++09 draft. Demand for this feature is not limited to C++, however. David Hall submitted a request for variable-arity type parameters for classes to Sun in 2005 [2]. For an illustration of the idea, consider the remarks on first-class functions in Scala [3] from the language's homepage. There it says that \every function is a value. Scala provides a lightweight syntax for defining anonymous functions, it supports higher-order functions, it allows functions to be nested, and supports currying." To achieve this integration of objects and closures, Scala's standard library pre-defines ten interfaces (traits) for function types, which we show here in Java-like syntax: interface Function0<Result> { Result apply(); } interface Function1<Arg1,Result> { Result apply(Arg1 a1); } interface Function2<Arg1,Arg2,Result> { Result apply(Arg1 a1, Arg2 a2); } ..

  • Small Hitting-Sets for Tiny Arithmetic Circuits Or: How to Turn Bad Designs Into Good
    Electronic Colloquium on Computational Complexity, Report No. 35 (2017) Small hitting-sets for tiny arithmetic circuits or: How to turn bad designs into good Manindra Agrawal ∗ Michael Forbes† Sumanta Ghosh ‡ Nitin Saxena § Abstract Research in the last decade has shown that to prove lower bounds or to derandomize polynomial identity testing (PIT) for general arithmetic circuits it suffices to solve these questions for restricted circuits. In this work, we study the smallest possibly restricted class of circuits, in particular depth-4 circuits, which would yield such results for general circuits (that is, the complexity class VP). We show that if we can design poly(s)-time hitting-sets for Σ ∧a ΣΠO(log s) circuits of size s, where a = ω(1) is arbitrarily small and the number of variables, or arity n, is O(log s), then we can derandomize blackbox PIT for general circuits in quasipolynomial time. Further, this establishes that either E6⊆#P/poly or that VP6=VNP. We call the former model tiny diagonal depth-4. Note that these are merely polynomials with arity O(log s) and degree ω(log s). In fact, we show that one only needs a poly(s)-time hitting-set against individual-degree a′ = ω(1) polynomials that are computable by a size-s arity-(log s) ΣΠΣ circuit (note: Π fanin may be s). Alternatively, we claim that, to understand VP one only needs to find hitting-sets, for depth-3, that have a small parameterized complexity. Another tiny family of interest is when we restrict the arity n = ω(1) to be arbitrarily small.

  • Decompositions of Functions Based on Arity
    DECOMPOSITIONS OF FUNCTIONS BASED ON ARITY GAP MIGUEL COUCEIRO, ERKKO LEHTONEN, AND TAMAS´ WALDHAUSER1 Abstract. We study the arity gap of functions of several variables defined on an arbitrary set A and valued in another set B. The arity gap of such a function is the minimum decrease in the number of essential variables when variables are identified. We establish a complete classification of functions according to their arity gap, extending existing results for finite functions. This classification is refined when the codomain B has a group structure, by providing unique decompositions into sums of functions of a prescribed form. As an application of the unique decompositions, in the case of finite sets we count, for each n and p, the number of n-ary functions that depend on all of their variables and have arity gap p. 1. Introduction Essential variables of functions have been investigated in multiple-valued logic and computer science, especially, concerning the distribution of values of functions whose variables are all essential (see, e.g., [9, 16, 22]), the process of substituting constants for variables (see, e.g., [2, 3, 14, 16, 18]), and the process of substituting variables for variables (see, e.g., [5, 10, 16, 21]). The latter line of study goes back to the 1963 paper by Salomaa [16] who consid- ered the following problem: How does identification of variables affect the number of essential variables of a given function? The minimum decrease in the number of essential variables of a function f : An → B (n ≥ 2) which depends on all of its variables is called the arity gap of f.

  • An Introduction to Prolog
    Appendix A An Introduction to Prolog A.1 A Short Background Prolog was designed in the 1970s by Alain Colmerauer and a team of researchers with the idea – new at that time – that it was possible to use logic to represent knowledge and to write programs. More precisely, Prolog uses a subset of predicate logic and draws its structure from theoretical works of earlier logicians such as Herbrand (1930) and Robinson (1965) on the automation of theorem proving. Prolog was originally intended for the writing of natural language processing applications. Because of its conciseness and simplicity, it became popular well beyond this domain and now has adepts in areas such as: • Formal logic and associated forms of programming • Reasoning modeling • Database programming • Planning, and so on. This chapter is a short review of Prolog. In-depth tutorials include: in English, Bratko (2012), Clocksin and Mellish (2003), Covington et al. (1997), and Sterling and Shapiro (1994); in French, Giannesini et al. (1985); and in German, Baumann (1991). Boizumault (1988, 1993) contain a didactical implementation of Prolog in Lisp. Prolog foundations rest on first-order logic. Apt (1997), Burke and Foxley (1996), Delahaye (1986), and Lloyd (1987) examine theoretical links between this part of logic and Prolog. Colmerauer started his work at the University of Montréal, and a first version of the language was implemented at the University of Marseilles in 1972. Colmerauer and Roussel (1996) tell the story of the birth of Prolog, including their try-and-fail experimentation to select tractable algorithms from the mass of results provided by research in logic.

  • Reducing the Arity in Unbiased Black-Box Complexity
    Reducing the Arity in Unbiased Black-Box Complexity Benjamin Doerr and Carola Winzen∗ Max-Planck-Institut f¨ur Informatik, 66123 Saarbr¨ucken, Germany Abstract We show that for all 1 < k ≤ log n the k-ary unbiased black-box complexity of the n- dimensional OneMax function class is O(n/k). This indicates that the power of higher arity operators is much stronger than what the previous O(n/ log k) bound by Doerr et al. (Faster black-box algorithms through higher arity operators, Proc. of FOGA 2011, pp. 163–172, ACM, 2011) suggests. The key to this result is an encoding strategy, which might be of independent interest. We show that, using k-ary unbiased variation operators only, we may simulate an unrestricted memory of size O(2k) bits. 1 Introduction Black-box complexity theory tries to give a theory-driven answer to the question how difficult a problem is to be solved by general purpose optimization approaches (“black-box algorithms”). The recently introduced notion of unbiased black-box complexity in addition allows a distinction regarding the arity of the variation operators employed (see the theory track best-paper award winner by Lehre and Witt [LW10]). The only result so far indicating that there exists a hierarchy of the unbiased black-box models with respect to their arity (that is, the only result indicating that for any k ∈ N the (k + 1)-ary operators are strictly more powerful than k-ary ones) is the result of Doerr, Johannsen, K¨otzing, Lehre, Wagner, and Winzen showing that the k-ary unbiased black-box complexity of the n-dimensional OneMaxn function class is O(n/ log k), 1 < k ≤ n.

The authors' previous results on the arity gap of functions of several vari- ables are refined by considering polynomial functions over arbitrary fields. We explicitly describe the polynomial functions with arity gap at least 3, as well as the polynomial functions with arity gap equal to 2 for fields of characteristic 0 or 2. These descriptions are given in the form of decomposition schemes of polynomial functions. Similar descrip- tions are given for arbitrary finite fields. However, we show that these descriptions do not extend to infinite fields of odd characteristic.
