We consider the communication complexity of the Hamming distance of two strings. Bille et al. [SPIRE 2018] considered the communication complexity of the longest common prefix (LCP) problem in the setting where the two parties have their strings in a compressed form, i.e., represented by the Lempel-Ziv 77 factorization (LZ77) with/without self-references. We present a randomized public-coin protocol for a joint computation of the Hamming distance of two strings represented by LZ77 without self-references. Although our scheme is heavily based on Bille et al.’s LCP protocol, our complexity analysis is original which uses Crochemore’s C-factorization and Rytter’s AVL-grammar. As a byproduct, we also show that LZ77 with/without self-references are not monotonic in the sense that their sizes can increase by a factor of 4/3 when a prefix of the string is removed.

After Bob sends Alice a bit, she responds with a lengthy reply. At the cost of a factor of two in the total communication, Alice could just as well have given Bob her two possible replies at once without listening to him at all, and have him select which one applies. Motivated by a conjecture stating that this form of “round elimination” is impossible in exact quantum communication complexity, we study the orthogonal rank and a symmetric variant thereof for a certain family of Cayley graphs. The orthogonal rank of a graph is the smallest number d for which one can label each vertex with a nonzero d-dimensional complex vector such that adjacent vertices receive orthogonal vectors. We show an exp(n) lower bound on the orthogonal rank of the graph on {0, 1} n in which two strings are adjacent if they have Hamming distance at least n/2. In combination with previous work, this implies an affirmative answer to the above conjecture.

In the distributed Deutsch–Jozsa promise problem, two parties are to determine whether their respective strings x, y ∈ {0,1}n are at the Hamming distanceH(x, y) = 0 or H(x, y) = $\frac{n}{2}$. Buhrman et al. (STOC' 98) proved that the exact quantum communication complexity of this problem is O(log n) while the deterministic communication complexity is Ω(n). This was the first impressive (exponential) gap between quantum and classical communication complexity. In this paper, we generalize the above distributed Deutsch–Jozsa promise problem to determine, for any fixed $\frac{n}{2}$ ⩽ k ⩽ n, whether H(x, y) = 0 or H(x, y) = k, and show that an exponential gap between exact quantum and deterministic communication complexity still holds if k is an even such that $\frac{1}{2}$n ⩽ k < (1 − λ)n, where 0 < λ < $\frac{1}{2}$ is given. We also deal with a promise version of the well-known disjointness problem and show also that for this promise problem there exists an exponential gap between quantum (and also probabilistic) communication complexity and deterministic communication complexity of the promise version of such a disjointness problem. Finally, some applications to quantum, probabilistic and deterministic finite automata of the results obtained are demonstrated.

In this work a class of functions is studied, which are built with the help of significant bits sequences on the ring ℤ2n. This class is built with use of a function ψ: ℤ2n → ℤ2. In public literature there are works in which ψ is a linear function. Here we will use a non-linear ψ function for this set. It is known that the period of a polynomial F in the ring ℤ2n is equal to T(mod 2)2α, where α∈ , n01- . The polynomials for which it is true that T(F) = T(F mod 2), in other words α = 0, are called marked polynomials. For our class we are going to use a polynomial with a maximum period as the characteristic polyomial. In the present work we show the bounds of the given class: non-linearity, the weight of the functions, the Hamming distance between functions. The Hamming distance between these functions and functions of other known classes is also given.
