Explicit exponential lower bounds for exact hyperplane covers

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We describe an explicit and simple subset of the discrete hypercube which cannot be exactly covered by fewer than exponentially many hyperplanes. The proof exploits a connection to communication complexity, and relies heavily on Razborov's lower bound for disjointness.
