Abstract

In this paper we give the first deterministic polynomial time algorithm for testing whether a diagonal depth-3 circuit C(x 1,...,x n ) (i.e. C is a sum of powers of linear functions) is zero. We also prove an exponential lower bound showing that such a circuit will compute determinant or permanent only if there are exponentially many linear functions.
