Abstract

We show that the communication complexity of the parity of the sum of binary digits of x + y is at least 0.085667 ... n + O (1) where x and y are n-bit integers. We also obtain a nontrivial (but weaker) lower bound on the parity of the total number of prime divisors of x + y counted with multiplicity.
