Equivalence Problems for Circuits over Sets of Natural Numbers
We investigate the complexity of equivalence problems for {∪, ∩, − , +, ×}-circuits computing sets of natural numbers. These problems were first introduced by Stockmeyer an...

Inverting Onto Functions and Polynomial Hierarchy
The class TFNP, defined by Megiddo and Papadimitriou, consists of multivalued functions with values that are polynomially verifiable and guaranteed to exist. Do we have evidence ...

Marrying Words and Trees
Traditionally, data that has both linear and hierarchical structure, such as annotated linguistic data, is modeled using ordered trees and queried using tree automata. In this pap...

New Bounds for MAX-SAT by Clause Learning
To solve a problem on a given CNF formula F a splitting algorithm recursively calls for F[v] and F[¬v] for a variable v. Obviously, after the first call an algorithm obtains some...

Ruling Out Polynomial-Time Approximation Schemes for Hard Constraint Satisfaction Problems
The maximum constraint satisfaction problem (Max CSP) is the following computational problem: an instance is a finite collection of constraints on a set of variables, and the goal...
