We study the problem of assigning different communication channels to
acces points in a wireless Local Area Network. Each access point will
be assigned a specific radio frequency channel. Since channels with
similar frequencies interfere, it is desirable to assign far apart
channels (frequencies) to nearby access points. Our goal ... more >>>

Under the assumption that NP does not have p-measure 0, we
investigate reductions to NP-complete sets and prove the following:

- Adaptive reductions are more powerful than nonadaptive
reductions: there is a problem that is Turing-complete for NP but
not truth-table-complete.

- Strong nondeterministic reductions are more powerful ... more >>>

We use entropy rates and Schur concavity to prove that, for every integer k >= 2, every nonzero rational number q, and every real number alpha, the base-k expansions of alpha, q+alpha, and q*alpha all have the same finite-state dimension and the same finite-state strong dimension. This extends, and gives ... more >>>
