Random Oracles with(out) Programmability
This paper investigates the Random Oracle Model (ROM) feature known as programmability, which allows security reductions in the ROM to dynamically choose the range points of an ide...

Non-Uniform Reductions
Reductions and completeness notions form the heart of computational complexity theory. Recently non-uniform reductions have been naturally introduced in a variety of settings conc...

Reductions in Circuit Complexity: An Isomorphism Theorem and a Gap Theorem
We show that all sets that are complete for NP under non-uniform AC0 reductions are isomorphic under non-uniform AC0-computable isomorphisms. Furthermore, these sets remain NP-com...

For completeness, sublogarithmic space is no space
It is shown that for any class C closed under linear-time reductions, the complete sets for C under sublogarithmic reductions are also complete under 2DFA reductions, and thus are...

Proving Termination of Context-Sensitive Rewriting with MU-TERM
Context-sensitive rewriting (CSR) is a restriction of rewriting which forbids reductions on selected arguments of functions. Proving termination of CSR is an interesting problem w...

Comparing Reductions to NP-Complete Sets
Under the assumption that NP does not have p-measure 0, we investigate reductions to NP-complete sets and prove the following: (1) Adaptive reductions are more powerful than nonad...

Crown reductions for the Minimum Weighted Vertex Cover problem
The paper studies crown reductions for the Minimum Weighted Vertex Cover problem introduced recently in the unweighted case by Fellows et al. [Blow-Ups, Win/Win's and crown r...

Effective formulation reductions for the quadratic assignment problem
In this paper we study two formulation reductions for the quadratic assignment problem (QAP). In particular we apply these reductions to the well known Adams and Johnson [2] integ...

Limitations of Hardness vs. Randomness under Uniform Reductions
We consider (uniform) reductions from computing a function f to the task of distinguishing the output of some pseudorandom generator G from uniform. Impagliazzo and Wigderson [IW]...

Almost Complete Sets
We show that there is a set that is almost complete but not complete under polynomial-time many-one (p-m) reductions for the class E of sets computable in deterministic time 2lin ...
