A universal lower-bound technique for the size and other implementation characteristics of an arbitrary Boolean function as a decision tree and as a two-level AND/OR circuit is derived. The technique is based on the power spectrum coefficients of the n dimensional Fourier transform of the function. The bounds vary from constant to exponential and are tight in many cases. Several examples are presented
