Various simplified or improved, and partly corrected well-known implicit characterizations of the complexity classes FPTIME and NC are presented. Primarily, the interest is in si...
We define a hierarchy of term systems Tk by means of restrictions of the recursion schema. We essentially use a pointer technique together with tiering. We prove Tk NCk Tk+1 , for ...
We describe some results inspired to Lafont's Soft Linear Logic (SLL) which is a subsystem of second-order linear logic with restricted rules for exponentials, correct and co...

We de ne the sharply bounded hierarchy, SBH(QL), a hierarchy of classes within P, using quasilinear-time computation and quanti cation over strings of length logn. It generalizes ...

Agents engaged in noncooperative interaction may seek to achieve a Nash equilibrium; this requires that agents be aware of others’ rewards. Misinformation about rewards leads to...
