We show that MAEXP, the exponential time version of the Merlin-Arthur class, does not have polynomial size circuits. This significantly improves the previous known result due to K...
Extremal Combinatorics is one of the central areas in Discrete Mathematics. It deals with problems that are often motivated by questions arising in other areas, including Theoreti...
