The Complexity of Problems for Quantified Constraints

In this paper we will look at restricted versions of the evaluation problem, the model checking problem, the equivalence problem, and the counting problem for quantified propositional formulas, both with and without bound on the number of quantifier alternations. The restrictions are such that we consider formulas in conjunctive normal-form ... more >>>

On the Lattice of Clones Below the Polynomial Time Functions

A clone is a set of functions that is closed under generalized substitution.
The set FP of functions being computable deterministically in polynomial
time is such a clone. It is well-known that the set of subclones of every
clone forms a lattice. We study the lattice below FP, which ... more >>>

Quantified Constraints: The Complexity of Decision and Counting for Bounded Alternation

We consider constraint satisfaction problems parameterized by the set of allowed constraint predicates. We examine the complexity of quantified constraint satisfaction problems with a bounded number of quantifier alternations and the complexity of the associated counting problems. We obtain classification results that completely solve the Boolean case, and we show ... more >>>

Generation Problems

Given a fixed computable binary operation f, we study the complexity of the following generation problem: The input consists of strings a1,...,an,b. The question is whether b is in the closure of {a1,...,an} under operation f.

For several subclasses of operations we prove tight upper and lower bounds for the ... more >>>

Small Bounded-Error Computations and Completeness

SBP is a probabilistic promise class located
between MA and AM \cap BPPpath. The first
part of the paper studies the question of whether
SBP has many-one complete sets. We relate
this question to the existence of uniform
enumerations. We construct an oracle relative to
which SBP and AM do ... more >>>
