A Linguistic Characterization of Bounded Oracle Computation and Probabilistic Polynomial Time
We present a higher-order functional notation for polynomial-time computation with arbitrary 0; 1-valued oracle. This provides a linguistic characterization for classes such as np...

Revisiting a limit on efficient quantum computation
In this paper, we offer an exposition of a theorem originally due to Adleman, Demarrais and Huang that shows that the quantum complexity class BQP (Bounded-error Quantum Polynomia...

On the Tightness of the Buhrman-Cleve-Wigderson Simulation
Abstract. Buhrman, Cleve and Wigderson gave a general communication protocol for block-composed functions f(g1(x1 , y1 ), · · · , gn(xn , yn )) by simulating a decision tree com...

On the complexity of overcoming gaps with isotropic mutations and elitist selection
We consider the (1+λ) evolution strategy, an evolutionary algorithm for minimization in Rn , using isotropic mutations. Thus, for instance, Gaussian mutations adapted by the 1/5-r...

The effect of girth on the kernelization complexity of Connected Dominating Set
In the Connected Dominating Set problem we are given as input a graph G and a positive integer k, and are asked if there is a set S of at most k vertices of G such that S is a dom...
