Sensitivity and block sensitivity of nested canalyzing function
Based on a recent characterization of nested canalyzing function (NCF), we obtain the formula of the sensitivity of any NCF. Hence we find that any sensitivity of NCF is between $\frac{n+1}{2}$ and $n$. Both lower and upper bounds are tight. We prove that the block sensitivity, hence the $l$-block s...

Zusammenfassung: | Based on a recent characterization of nested canalyzing function (NCF), we
obtain the formula of the sensitivity of any NCF. Hence we find that any
sensitivity of NCF is between $\frac{n+1}{2}$ and $n$. Both lower and upper
bounds are tight. We prove that the block sensitivity, hence the $l$-block
sensitivity, is same to the sensitivity. It is well known that monotone
function also has this property. We eventually find all the functions which are
both monotone and nested canalyzing (MNCF). The cardinality of all the MNCF is
also provided. |
