چکیده

The aim of this paper is to present a proof of the equivalence of the equalities N P = PCP(log log n; 1) and P = N P. The proof is based on producing long pseudo-random bit strings through random walks on expander graphs. This technique also implies that for any language in N P there exists a restricted veriier using log n + c, c is a constant, random bits. Furthermore, we prove that the equality of classes N P and PCP(poly(log log n); poly(log log n)) implies the inclusion of N P in DT IME ? n poly(log log n). Also, some technical details of the proof of N P = PCP(log n; 1) are used for showing that a certain class of (poly(log log n); poly(log log n)){restricted veriiers does not exist for languages in N P unless P = N P.

Consequences of the provability of NP ⊆ P/poly

We prove the following results: (i) PV proves NP ⊆ P/poly iff PV proves coNP ⊆ NP/O(1). (ii) If PV proves NP ⊆ P/poly then PV proves that the Polynomial Hierarchy collapses to the Boolean Hierarchy. (iii) S2 proves NP ⊆ P/poly iff S 1 2 proves coNP ⊆ NP/O(log n). (iv) If S2 proves NP ⊆ P/poly then S 1 2 proves that the Polynomial Hierarchy collapses to P[log n]. (v) If S2 proves NP ⊆ P/poly the...

Very Sparse Leaf Languages

Unger studied the balanced leaf languages defined via poly-logarithmically sparse leaf pattern sets. Unger shows that NP-complete sets are not polynomial-time many-one reducible to such balanced leaf language unless the polynomial hierarchy collapses to Θp2 and that Σ p 2-complete sets are not polynomial-time bounded-truth-table reducible (respectively, polynomial-time Turing reducible) to any ...

Learning Unions of omega(1)-Dimensional Rectangles

We consider the problem of learning unions of rectangles over the domain [b]n, in the uniform distribution membership query learning setting, where both b and n are “large”. We obtain poly(n, log b)-time algorithms for the following classes: • poly(n log b)-way MAJORITY of O( log(n log b) log log(n log b))-dimensional rectangles. • Union of poly(log(n log b)) many O( log (n log b) (log log(n lo...

Domain of attraction of normal law and zeros of random polynomials

Let$ P_{n}(x)= sum_{i=0}^{n} A_{i}x^{i}$ be a random algebraicpolynomial, where $A_{0},A_{1}, cdots $ is a sequence of independent random variables belong to the domain of attraction of the normal law. Thus $A_j$'s for $j=0,1cdots $ possesses the characteristic functions $exp {-frac{1}{2}t^{2}H_{j}(t)}$, where $H_j(t)$'s are complex slowlyvarying functions.Under the assumption that there exist ...

Power of Uninitialized Qubits in Shallow Quantum Circuits

We study the computational power of shallow quantum circuits with n input qubits, one output qubit, and two types of ancillary qubits: O(log n) initialized and O(poly(n)) uninitialized qubits. The initial state of the uninitialized ancillary qubits is arbitrary, and we have to return their state into the initial one at the end of the computation. First, to show the strengths of such circuits, w...
