Abstract:
There have been several papers over the last ten years that consider
the number of queries needed to compute a function as a measure of its
complexity. The following function has been studied extensively in
that light:
FAa(x1, ... , xa)
=
A(x1)...A(xa). We
are interested in the complexity (in terms of the number of queries)
of approximating FAa. Let b
≤ a and let f be any function such that
FAa(x1, ... , xa)
and
