PCPs with small soundness error
The soundness error of a PCP verifier is the probability (usually denoted ) that the verifier accepts an incorrect input. We are interested in the smallest possible values of for...

It is known that there exists a PCP characterization of NP where the verifier makes 3 queries and has a onesided error that is bounded away from 1; and also that 2 queries do not ...
