Circuit-size Lower Bounds and Non-reducibility to Sparse Sets
As remarked in Cook (1980), we do not know any nonlinear lower bound on the circuit-size of a language in P or even in NP. The best known lower bound seems to be due to Paul (1975). In this paper we show that first for each nonnegative integer k, there is a language Lk in Σ2∩π2 (of Meyer and Stockme...
