Speaker: Dominik Scheder
We will define Fourier Transformation of boolean functions on the discrete cube {0,1}^n. We will introduce the notion of "influence" of a variable on a boolean function, which has a nice representation in terms of the Fourier coefficients of the function.
We then sketch the prove of the KKL theorem (a central result about influences) and then show how this implies the sharp threshold theorem for monotone graph properties.
