We present a higher-order functional notation for polynomial-time computation with arbitrary 0; 1-valued oracle. This provides a linguistic characterization for classes such as np...
We examine the number T of queries that a quantum network requires to compute several Boolean functions on f0;1gN in the black-box model. We show that, in the blackbox model, the ...

We consider the parametric minimum spanning tree problem, in which we are given a graph with edge weights that are linear functions of a parameter and wish to compute the sequenc...

We prove an exponential lower bound for tree-like Cutting Planes refutations of a set of clauses which has polynomial size resolution refutations. This implies an exponential sepa...

This paper deals with the evaluation of acyclic Boolean conjunctive queries in relational databases. By well-known results of Yannakakis [1981], this problem is solvable in polynom...
