Abstract:
The class $F_{n,k}$ of Boolean functions
consisting of all functions of $n$
variables
each of which outputs $1$ at exactly $k$$n$-tuples of values of the variables is
considered.
For small $k$,
for example, for
$k<\ln n$,
an asymptotics for the
complexity of implementation of every function in
$F_{n,k}$ by a circuit of functional elements in
an irredundant basis containing
$x\to y$
and
$\overline{x\to y}$
is found.
Keywords:Boolean function, circuit, complexity of a function.
