Hardness Amplification within NP against Deterministic Algorithms
We study the average-case hardness of the class NP against deterministic polynomial time algorithms. We prove that there exists some constant

On uniform amplification of hardness in NP
We continue the study of amplification of average-case complexity within NP, and we focus on the uniform case. We prove that if every problem in NP admits an efficient uniform alg...

Uniform Hardness Amplification in NP via Monotone Codes
We consider the problem of amplifying uniform average-case hardness of languages in NP, where hardness is with respect to BPP algorithms. We introduce the notion of monotone error...

Using nondeterminism to amplify hardness
We revisit the problem of hardness amplification in NP, as recently studied by O'Donnell (STOC `02). We prove that if NP has a balanced function f such that any circuit of si...
