摘要：We demonstrate some lower bounds for parameterized problems via parameterized classes corresponding to the classical AC^0. Among others, we derive such a lower bound for all fpt-approximations of the parameterized clique problem and for a parameterized halting problem, which recently turned out to link problems of computational complexity, descriptive complexity, and proof theory. To show the first lower bound, we prove a strong AC^0 version of the planted clique conjecture: AC^0-circuits asymptotically almost surely can not distinguish between a random graph and this graph with a randomly planted clique of any size <= n^xi (where 0 <= xi < 1).
