From Feasible Proofs to Feasible Computations
We shall discuss several situations in which it is possible to extract from a proof, be it a proof in a first-order theory or a propositional proof, some feasible computational inf...

A spectral technique for coloring random 3-colorable graphs (preliminary version)
Let G(3n, p, 3) be a random 3-colorable graph on a set of 3n vertices generated as follows. First, split the vertices arbitrarily into three equal color classes and then choose ev...
