Abstract

In a recent breakthrough paper [M. Braverman, A. Garg, D. Pankratov, and O. Weinstein, From information to exact communication, STOC’13] Braverman et al. developed a local characterization for the zero-error information complexity in the two-party model, and used it to compute the exact internal and external information complexity of the 2-bit AND function. In this article, we extend their results on AND function to the multi-party number-in-hand model by proving that the generalization of their protocol has optimal internal and external information cost for certain distributions. Our proof has new components, and in particular it fixes a minor gap in the proof of Braverman et al.
