The present paper generalises results by Lutz and Ryabko. We prove a
martingale characterisation of exact Hausdorff dimension. On this base we
introduce the notion of exact constructive dimension of (sets of) infinite
strings.

Furthermore, we generalise Ryabko's result on the Hausdorff dimension of the

Probabilistically checkable debate systems (PCDSs) are debates between two competing provers, in which a polynomial-time verifier inspects a constant number of bits of the debate. It was shown by Condon, Feigenbaum, Lund, and Shor that every language in PSPACE has a PCDS in which the debate length is polynomially bounded. ... more >>>

We introduce a new form of composition called \emph{weak composition} that allows us to obtain polynomial kernelization lower-bounds for several natural parameterized problems. Let $d \ge 2$ be some constant and let $L_1, L_2 \subseteq \{0,1\}^* \times \N$ be two parameterized problems where the unparameterized version of $L_1$ is \NP-hard. ... more >>>
