In this paper, besides a counterexample to Bloch's principle, normality criteria leading to counterexamples to the converse of Bloch's principle in several complex variables are proved. Some Picard-type theorems and their corresponding…

We study Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs) in an infinite context. We show that the dichotomy between easy and hard problems -- established already in the finite case -- presents itself as the strength of the corresponding De…

Quantum computers are widely believed have an advantage over classical computers, and some have even published some empirical evidence that this is the case. However, these publications do not include a rigorous proof of this advantage,…

In this paper, we prove that the numerical-semigroup-gap counting problem is #NP-complete as a main theorem. A numerical semigroup is an additive semigroup over the set of all nonnegative integers. A gap of a numerical semigroup is defined…

We define an index of compatibility for a probabilistic theory (PT). Quantum mechanics with index 0 and classical probability theory with index 1 are at the two extremes. In this way, quantum mechanics is at least as incompatible as any PT.…

The Curry-Howard correspondence is often called the proofs-as-programs result. I offer a generalization of this result, something which may be called machines as programs. Utilizing this insight, I introduce two new Turing Machines called…

We study two modifications of the Post Correspondence Problem (PCP), namely 1) the bi-infinite version, where it is asked whether there exists a bi-infinite word such that two given morphisms agree on it, and 2) the conjugate version, where…

In [2] the author claims to provide a counterexample to a result in a recent paper [1]. In this note, we prove that the details of his example is false and this example is compatible with our result in [1] and so is not a countreexample.

In this paper, we make a preliminary interpretation of Cook's theorem presented in [1]. This interpretation reveals cognitive biases in the proof of Cook's theorem that arise from the attempt of constructing a formula in CNF to represent a…

I study the class of problems efficiently solvable by a quantum computer, given the ability to "postselect" on the outcomes of measurements. I prove that this class coincides with a classical complexity class called PP, or Probabilistic…

We reveal a natural algebraic problem whose complexity appears to interpolate between the well-known complexity classes BQP and NP: (*) Decide whether a univariate polynomial with exactly m monomial terms has a p-adic rational root. In…

We consider two celebrated criteria for defining the non-classicality of bipartite bosonic quantum systems, the first stemming from information theoretic concepts and the second from physical constraints on the quantum phase-space.…

The concept of individuality in quantum mechanics shows radical differences from the one used in classical physics. In particular, it is not possible to consider the fundamental particles described by quantum theory as individual…

Given a predicate $P: \{-1, 1\}^k \to \{-1, 1\}$, let $CSP(P)$ be the set of constraint satisfaction problems whose constraints are of the form $P$. We say that $P$ is approximable if given a nearly satisfiable instance of $CSP(P)$, there…
