The $P$ versus $NP$ problem is still unsolved. But there are several oracles with $P$ unequal $NP$ relative to them. Here we will prove, that $P\not=NP$ relative to a $P$-complete oracle. In this paper, we use padding arguments as the proof…

We construct an oracle relative to which $\mathrm{NP} = \mathrm{PSPACE}$, but $\mathrm{UP}$ has no many-one complete sets. This combines the properties of an oracle by Hartmanis and Hemachandra [HH88] and one by Ogiwara and Hemachandra…

Kolmogorov complexity is often used as a convenient language for counting and/or probabilistic existence proofs. However, there are some applications where Kolmogorov complexity is used in a more subtle way. We provide one (somehow)…

The relationship between the complexity classes P and NP is an unsolved question in the field of theoretical computer science. In this paper, we look at the link between the P - NP question and the "Deterministic" versus "Non Deterministic"…

We prove two sets of results concerning computational complexity classes. The first concerns a variation of the random oracle hypothesis posed by Bennett and Gill after they showed that relative to a randomly chosen oracle, P not equal NP…

Many theorems about Kolmogorov complexity rely on existence of combinatorial objects with specific properties. Usually the probabilistic method gives such objects with better parameters than explicit constructions do. But the probabilistic…

This paper demonstrates the relativity of Computability and Nondeterministic; the nondeterministic is just Turing's undecidable Decision rather than the Nondeterministic Polynomial time. Based on analysis about TM, UM, DTM, NTM, Turing…

We present a new approach to formal language theory using Kolmogorov complexity. The main results presented here are an alternative for pumping lemma(s), a new characterization for regular languages, and a new method to separate…

Bennett and Gill (1981) showed that P^A != NP^A != coNP^A for a random oracle A, with probability 1. We investigate whether this result extends to individual polynomial-time random oracles. We consider two notions of random oracles:…

This article finds the answer to the question: for any problem from which a non-deterministic algorithm can be derived which verifies whether an answer is correct or not in polynomial time (complexity class NP), is it possible to create an…

In [3] a short proof is given that some strings have maximal plain Kolmogorov complexity but not maximal prefix-free complexity. The proof uses Levin's symmetry of information, Levin's formula relating plain and prefix complexity and Gacs'…

We construct an oracle relative to which $\mathrm{P} = \mathrm{NP} \cap \mathrm{coNP}$, but there are no many-one complete sets in $\mathrm{UP}$, no many-one complete disjoint $\mathrm{NP}$-pairs, and no many-one complete disjoint…

The famous G\"odel incompleteness theorem states that for every consistent sufficiently rich formal theory T there exist true statements that are unprovable in T. Such statements would be natural candidates for being added as axioms, but…

It is a long-standing open question in quantum complexity theory whether the definition of $\textit{non-deterministic}$ quantum computation requires quantum witnesses $(\textsf{QMA})$ or if classical witnesses suffice $(\textsf{QCMA})$. We…

As one step in a working program initiated by Pudl\'ak [Pud17] we construct an oracle relative to which $\mathrm{P}\ne\mathrm{NP}$ and all non-empty sets in $\mathrm{NP}\cup\mathrm{coNP}$ have $\mathrm{P}$-optimal proof systems.
