In this work, we show that the class of multivariate degree-$d$ polynomials mapping $\{0,1\}^{n}$ to any Abelian group $G$ is locally correctable with $\widetilde{O}_{d}((\log n)^{d})$ queries for up to a fraction of errors approaching half the minimum distance of the underlying code. In particular, this result holds even for polynomials ... more >>>
This note revisits the study of search problems that are solvable in probabilistic polynomial time. Previously, Goldreich (2011) introduced a class called ``$\mathcal{BPP}$-search'', and studied search-to-decision reductions for problems in this class.
In Goldreich's original formulation, the definition of what counts as ``successfully solving'' a $\mathcal{BPP}$-search problem is implicit, and ... more >>>
There has been tremendous progress in the past decade in the field of quantified Boolean formulas (QBF), both in practical solving as well as in creating a theory of corresponding proof systems and their proof complexity analysis. Both for solving and for proof complexity, it is important to have interesting ... more >>>
