The Shrinking Property for NP and coNP
We study the shrinking and separation properties (two notions well-known in descriptive set theory) for NP and coNP and show that under reasonable complexity-theoretic assumptions...

Transforming co-NP Checks to Answer Set Computation by Meta-Interpretation
Many NP-complete problems can be encoded in the answer set semantics of logic programs in a very concise way, where the encoding reflects the typical “guess and check” nature ...

Satisfiability Allows No Nontrivial Sparsification Unless The Polynomial-Time Hierarchy Collapses
Consider the following two-player communication process to decide a language L: The first player holds the entire input x but is polynomially bounded; the second player is computa...

A Lattice Problem in Quantum NP
We consider coGapSV P√ n, a gap version of the shortest vector in a lattice problem. This problem is known to be in AM ∩coNP but is not known to be in NP or in MA. We prove th...

Clique-Width and Parity Games
The question of the exact complexity of solving parity games is one of the major open problems in system verification, as it is equivalent to the problem of model-checking the mod...
