Boolean constant degree functions on the slice are juntas

We show that a Boolean degree $d$ function on the “slice” $\left(\genfrac{}{}{0ex}{}{n]}{k}\right)?\{(x_1,\dots ,x_n)\in \{0,1\}:{\sum }_{i=1}^n{x}_i=k\}$ is a junta (depends on a constant number $\gamma \left(d\right)$ of coordinates), assuming that $k,n?k$ are large enough. This generalizes a classical result of Nisan and Szegedy on the hypercube ${\{0,1\}}^n$. Moreover, we show that the maximum number of coordinates that a Boolean degree $d$ function can depend on is the same on the slice and on the hypercube.
