Towards Average-Case Complexity Analysis of NP Optimization Problems
For the worst-case complexity measure, if P = NP, then P = OptP, i.e., all NP optimization problems are polynomial-time solvable. On the other hand, it is not clear whether a simi...

On the Theory of Average Case Complexity
This paper takes the next step in developing the theory of average case complexity initiated by Leonid A Levin. Previous works Levin 84, Gurevich 87, Venkatesan and Levin 88] have...

On Approximating Optimal Weighted Lobbying, and Frequency of Correctness Versus Average-Case Polynomial Time
We investigate issues regarding two hard problems related to voting, the optimal weighted lobbying problem and the winner problem for Dodgson elections. Regarding the former, Chris...

Some Results on Average-Case Hardness Within the Polynomial Hierarchy
Abstract. We prove several results about the average-case complexity of problems in the Polynomial Hierarchy (PH). We give a connection among average-case, worst-case, and non-unif...
