Abstract

It has been shown by A. Yao (1990) that every language in ACC is recognized by a sequence of depth-2 probabilistic circuits with a symmetric gate at the root and n/sup polylog/(n) AND gates of fan-in polylog (n) at the leaves. The authors simplify Yao's proof and strengthen his results: every language in ACC is recognized by a sequence of depth-2 deterministic circuits with a symmetric gate at the root and n/sup polylog/(n) AND gates of fan-in polylog(n) at the leaves. They also analyze and improve modulus-amplifying polynomials constructed by S. Toda (1989) and Yao: this yields smaller circuits in Yao's and the present results on ACC.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
