Improved Monotone Circuit Depth Upper Bound for Directed Graph   Reachability
  We prove that the directed graph reachability problem (transitive closure) can be solved by monotone fan-in 2 boolean circuits of depth (1/2+o(1))(log n)^2, where n is the number of nodes. This improves the previous known upper bound (1+o(1))(log n)^2. The proof is non-constructive, but we give a constructive proof of the upper bound (7/8+o(1))(log n)^2.
