Strategic games may exhibit symmetries in a variety of ways. A common aspect of symmetry, enabling the compact representation of games even when the number of players is unbounded, is that players cannot (or need not) distinguish between the other players. We define four classes of symmetric games by considering ... more >>>
<p> We study the question of the existence of non-mitotic sets in NP. We show under various hypotheses that:</p>
<ul>
<li>1-tt-mitoticity and m-mitoticity differ on NP.</li>
<li>1-tt-reducibility and m-reducibility differ on NP.</li>
<li>There exist non-T-autoreducible sets in NP (by a result from Ambos-Spies, these sets are neither ...

We show that in the bounded degree model for graph property testing,
adaptivity is essential. An algorithm is *non-adaptive* if it makes all queries to the input before receiving any answers. We call a property *non-trivial* if it does not depend only on the degree distribution of the nodes. We ...
