Abstract
The orbit of an n-variate polynomial f(x) over a field F is the set f(Ax+b): A � GL(n,F) and b � Fn. In this paper, we initiate the study of explicit hitting sets for the orbits of polynomials computable by several natural and well-studied circuit classes and polynomial families. In particular, we give quasi-polynomial time hitting sets for the orbits of: 1. Low-individual-degree polynomials computable by commutative ROABPs. This implies quasi-polynomial time hitting sets for the orbits of the elementary symmetric polynomials. 2. Multilinear polynomials computable by constant-width ROABPs. This implies a quasi-polynomial time hitting set for the orbits of the family IMM3,dd�N, which is complete for arithmetic formulas. 3. Polynomials computable by constant-depth, constant-occur formulas. This implies quasi-polynomial time hitting sets for the orbits of multilinear depth-4 circuits with constant top fan-in, and also polynomial-time hitting sets for the orbits of the power symmetric and the sum-product polynomials. 4. Polynomials computable by occur-once formulas. © Chandan Saha and Bhargav Thankey; licensed under Creative Commons License CC-BY 4.0
