Abstract

In this paper we extend the area of applications of the Abstract Harmonic Analysis to the field of Boolean function complexity. In particular, we extend the class of functions to which a spectral technique developed in a series of works of the first author can be applied. This extension allows us to prove that testing square-free numbers by unbounded fan-in circuits of bounded depth requires a superpolynomial size. This implies the same estimate for the integer factorization problem.
