A problem is downward self-reducible if it can be solved efficiently given an oracle that returns
solutions for strictly smaller instances. In the decisional landscape, downward self-reducibility is
well studied and it is known that all downward self-reducible problems are in PSPACE. In this
paper, we initiate the study of ...

A problem $\mathcal{P}$ is considered downward self-reducible, if there exists an efficient algorithm for $\mathcal{P}$ that is allowed to make queries to only strictly smaller instances of $\mathcal{P}$. Downward self-reducibility has been well studied in the case of decision problems, and it is well known that any downward self-reducible problem ... more >>>
