Williams: nonuniform ACC circuit lower bounds

Contribution grade

Computability and complexity · THEOREM

Reference score245,000Provisional editorial estimate of this exact contribution; its grade is assessed separately.

What changed

Proved NEXP has no polynomial-size nonuniform ACC circuits via a faster-satisfiability-to-lower-bound connection.

Scientific scope

The record is Williams's sole-author journal paper and its stated circuit classes and uniformity assumptions. It is not a P-versus-NP proof or a lower bound for arbitrary circuits.
