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 ...

Restricted Boltzmann Machines are Hard to Approximately Evaluate or Simulate
Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) are a type of probability model over the Boolean cube {-1, 1}n that have recently received much attention. We establish the intractability of ...

Hardness and approximation of minimum distortion embeddings
We show that the problem of computing a minimum distortion embedding of a given graph into a path remains NP-hard when the input graph is restricted to a bipartite, cobipartite, o...

Hardness results for approximating the bandwidth
The bandwidth of an n-vertex graph G is the minimum value b such that the vertices of G can be mapped to distinct integer points on a line without any edge being stretched to a di...

Random Debaters and the Hardness of Approximating Stochastic Functions
A probabilistically checkable debate system (PCDS) for a language L consists of a probabilisticpolynomial-time veri er V and a debate between Player 1, who claims that the input x ...
