Approximating the distribution of fitness over hamming regions
The distribution of fitness values across a set of states sharply influences the dynamics of evolutionary processes and heuristic search in combinatorial optimization. In this p...

On the Optimality of the Dimensionality Reduction Method
We investigate the optimality of (1+ )-approximation algorithms obtained via the dimensionality reduction method. We show that: • Any data structure for the (1 + )-approximate n...

If NP Languages are Hard on the Worst-Case Then It is Easy to Find Their Hard Instances
We prove that if NP ⊆ BPP, i.e., if SAT is worst-case hard, then for every probabilistic polynomial-time algorithm trying to decide SAT, there exists some polynomially samplable ...
