چکیده
Over the years coding theory and complexity theory have benefited from a number of mutually enriching connections. This article focuses on a new connection that has emerged between the two topics in the recent years. This connection is centered around the notion of “listdecoding” for error-correcting codes. In this survey we describe the list-decoding problem, the algorithms that have been developed, and a diverse collection of applications within complexity theory.

I just attended the 9th Structure in Complexity Theory Conference, which was in Amsterdam this year. 100% of the rst three papers in the proceedings ;?) were devoted to the study of semi-membership algorithms! In fact, during the last half-decade, there has been a marked surge of interest in semi-membership algorithms. The article below surveys some of the recent results from this research area...

1. The Universal Computer. The road from Leibniz to Turing by Martin Davis. Reviewed by Haim Kilov. This book has stories of the personal, social, and professional lives of Leibniz, Boole, Frege, Cantor, Gödel, and Turing, and explains some of the essentials of their thought. The mathematics is accessible to a non-expert, although some mathematical maturity, as opposed to specific knowledge, ce...
