The parallel repetition theorem states that for any Two
Prover Game with value at most $1-\epsilon$ (for $\epsilon<1/2$),
the value of the game repeated $n$ times in parallel is at most
$(1-\epsilon^3)^{\Omega(n/s)}$, where $s$ is the length of the
answers of the two provers. For Projection
Games, the bound on ... more >>>

We prove an optimal $\Omega(n)$ lower bound on the randomized
communication complexity of the much-studied
Gap-Hamming-Distance problem. As a consequence, we
obtain essentially optimal multi-pass space lower bounds in the
data stream model for a number of fundamental problems, including
the estimation of frequency moments.

The Gap-Hamming-Distance problem is a ... more >>>

Let C(x) and K(x) denote plain and prefix Kolmogorov complexity, respectively, and let R_C and R_K denote the sets of strings that are ``random'' according to these measures; both R_K and R_C are undecidable. Earlier work has shown that every set in NEXP is in NP relative to both R_K ... more >>>
