Sumario:It is well-known that the class P/poly can be characterized in terms of polynomial size circuits. We obtain a characterization of the class P/log using polynomial size circuits with low resource-bounded Kolmogorov Complexity. The concept of "small circuits with easy descriptions" has been introduced in the literature as a candidate to characterizing P/log. We prove that this concept doesn't correspond exactly to P/log but to P/O(log n * log(log n)), and that this class is different from the previous one. Generalizations of this result are also obtained.
