AbstractWe prove that, for n ⩾ 2, any n-place Boolean function may be implemented by a two-pole contact circuit which is irredundant and allows a diagnostic test with length not exceeding n + k(n − 2) under at most k contact breaks. It is shown that with k = k(n) ⩽ 2n−4, for almost all n-place Boolean functions, the least possible length of such a test is at most 2k + 2.

Quantum Query

It has been proved that almost all n-bit Boolean functions have exact classical query complexity n. However, the situation seemed to be very different when we deal with exact quantum query complexity. In this paper, we prove that almost all n-bit Boolean functions can be computed by an exact quantum algorithm with less than n queries. More exactly, we prove that ANDn is the only n-bit Boolean function, up to isomorphism, that requires n queries.

Boolean networks are discrete dynamical systems comprised of coupled Boolean functions. An important parameter that characterizes such systems is the Lyapunov exponent, which measures the state stability of the system to small perturbations. We consider networks comprised of monotone Boolean functions and derive asymptotic formulas for the Lyapunov exponent of almost all monotone Boolean networks. The formulas are different depending on whether the number of variables of the constituent Boolean functions, or equivalently, the connectivity of the Boolean network, is even or odd.
