Hilbert's Nullstellensatz is one of the most fundamental correspondences between algebra and geometry, and has inspired a plethora of noncommutative analogs. In last two decades, there has been an increased interest in understanding…
Hilbert's 10th problem, stated in modern terms, is: Find an algorithm that will, given $p \in \mathbb{Z}[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ determine if there exists $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n \in \mathbb{Z}$ such that $p(a_1,\ldots,a_n)=0$. Davis, Putnam,…

We consider the average-case complexity of some otherwise undecidable or open Diophantine problems. More precisely, consider the following: (I) Given a polynomial f in Z[v,x,y], decide the sentence \exists v \forall x \exists y f(v,x,y)=0,…
