| Popis: | We analyze Kumar's recent quadratic algebraic branching program size lower bound proof method (CCC 2017) for the power sum polynomial. We present a refinement of this method that gives better bounds in some cases. The lower bound relies on Noether-Lefschetz type conditions on the hypersurface defined by the homogeneous polynomial. In the explicit example that we provide, the lower bound is proved resorting to classical intersection theory. Furthermore, we use similar methods to improve the known lower bound methods for slice rank of polynomials. We consider a sequence of polynomials that have been studied before by Shioda and show that for these polynomials the improved lower bound matches the known upper bound. Comment: 14 pages |
