Abstract

We show that the system of elementary conjunctions Ωn,2k=K0,,K2k1 such that each conjunction depends essentially on n variables and corresponds to some codeword of a linear (n, k)-code can be implemented by a separating contact circuit of complexity at most 2k+1 +4k(n − k) − 2. We also show that if a contact (1, 2k)-terminal network is separating and implements the system of elementary conjunctions Ωn,2k , then the number of contacts in it is at least 2k+1 − 2.
