We give improved explicit constructions of hitting-sets for read-once oblivious algebraic branching programs (ROABPs) and related models. ...
Finally, we give improved explicit hitting-sets for polynomials computable by width-r ROABPs in any variable order, also known as any-order ROABPs. ...
In this work we give improved explicit hitting-sets for ROABPs (unknown order), sum of several ROABPs (small variate regime) and any-order ROABPs with respect to various parameters. ...

Hitting sets for multilinear read-once algebraic branching programs, in any order
2014
