Derandomizing from Random Strings
—In this paper we show that BPP is truth-table reducible to the set of Kolmogorov random strings RK . It was previously known that PSPACE, and hence BPP is Turingreducible to RK ...

Exposure-Resilient Extractors and the Derandomization of Probabilistic Sublinear Time
There exists a positive constant < 1 such that for any function T(n) n and for any problem L BPTIME(T(n)), there exists a deterministic algorithm running in poly(T(n)) time w...

On Generating Independent Random Strings
It is shown that from two strings that are partially random and independent (in the sense of Kolmogorov complexity) it is possible to effectively construct polynomially many strin...

Near-Optimal Conversion of Hardness into Pseudo-Randomness
Various efforts ([?, ?, ?]) have been made in recent years to derandomize probabilistic algorithms using the complexity theoretic assumption that there exists a problem in E = dti...

Weak Derandomization of Weak Algorithms: Explicit Versions of Yao's Lemma
—A simple averaging argument shows that given a randomized algorithm A and a function f such that for every input x, Pr[A(x) = f(x)] ≥ 1−ρ (where the probability is over the...
