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…

Pudl\'ak [Pud17] lists several major conjectures from the field of proof complexity and asks for oracles that separate corresponding relativized conjectures. Among these conjectures are: - $\mathsf{DisjNP}$: The class of all disjoint…

The $\textbf{P}$ vs. $\textbf{NP}$ problem is an important problem in contemporary mathematics and theoretical computer science. Many proofs have been proposed to this problem. This paper proposes a theoretic proof for $\textbf{P}$ vs.…

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…

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…

All versions of this paper contain errors. Therefore, the existence of an oracle relative to which (i) there exist complete disjoint coNP-pairs and (ii) there exist no complete total polynomial search problems must be considered as an open…

The {\em diagonalization technique} was invented by Georg Cantor to show that there are more real numbers than algebraic numbers and is very crucial in {\em theoretical computer science}. In this work, we enumerate all of the…

This article describes a Turing machine which can solve for $\beta^{'}$ which is RE-complete. RE-complete problems are proven to be undecidable by Turing's accepted proof on the Entscheidungsproblem. Thus, constructing a machine which…

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…

The relationship between the complexity classes P and NP is a question that has not yet been answered by the Theory of Computation. The existence of a language in NP, proven not to belong to P, is sufficient evidence to establish the…

Do complexity classes have many-one complete sets if and only if they have Turing-complete sets? We prove that there is a relativized world in which a relatively natural complexity class-namely a downward closure of NP, \rsnnp - has…

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.

SAT is not in P, is true and provable in a simply consistent extension B' of a first order theory B of computing, with a single finite axiom characterizing a universal Turing machine. Therefore, P is not equal to NP, is true and provable in…

Assuming a cloning oracle, satisfiability, which is an NP complete problem, is shown to belong to $BPP^C$ and $BQP^C$ (depending on the ability of the oracle C to clone either a binary random variable or a qubit). The same result is…

Existing models of computation, such as a Turing machine (hereafter, TM), do not consider the agent involved in interpreting the outcome of the computation. We argue that a TM, or any other computation model, has no significance if its…

In this paper, we examine Lin's "On NP versus coNP and Frege Systems" [Lin25]. Lin claims to prove that $\text{NP} \neq \text{coNP}$ by constructing a language $L_d$ such that $L_d \in \text{NP}$ but $L_d \notin \text{coNP}$. We present a…
