Interactive PCP
A central line of research in the area of PCPs is devoted to constructing short PCPs. In this paper, we show that if we allow an additional interactive verification phase, with v...

A Toolkit for First Order Extensions of Monadic Games
In 1974 R. Fagin proved that properties of structures which are in NP are exactly the same as those expressible by existential second order sentences, that is sentences of the form...

On the Complexity of Nash Equilibria and Other Fixed Points
We reexamine what it means to compute Nash equilibria and, more generally, what it means to compute a fixed point of a given Brouwer function, and we investigate the complexity o...

Algorithmics in Exponential Time
Exponential algorithms, i.e. algorithms of complexity O(cn ) for some c > 1, seem to be unavoidable in the case of NP-complete problems (unless P=NP), especially if the problem ...

Computing best-possible bounds for the distribution of a sum of several variables is NP-hard
In many real-life situations, we know the probability distribution of two random variables x1 and x2, but we have no information about the correlation between x1 and x2; what are ...
