Branching programs are a well-established computation model for boolean functions, especially read-once branching programs (BP1s) have been studied intensively. Recently two restricted nondeterministic (parity) BP1 models, called nondeterministic (parity) graph-driven BP1s and well-structured nondeterministic (parity) graph-driven BP1s, have been investigated. The consistency test for a BP-model M is the test whether a given BP is really a BP of model M . Here it is proved that the consistency...

Characterizing the complexity of boolean functions represented by well-structured graph-driven parity-FBDDs

We investigate well-structured graph-driven parity-FBDDs, which strictly generalize the two well-known models parity OBDDs and well-structured graph-driven FBDDs. The first main result is a characterization of the complexity of Boolean functions represented by well-structured graph-driven parity-FBDDs in terms of invariants of the function represented and the graph-ordering used. As a consequence, we derive a lower bound criterion and prove an exponential lower bound for certain linear...
