While theoretical computer science primarily works with discrete models of computation, like the Turing machine and the wordRAM, there are many scenarios in which introducing real computation models is more adequate. We want to compare real…
This work investigates the oracle separation between the physically motivated complexity class of noisy quantum circuits, inspired by definitions such as those presented by Chen, Cotler, Huang, and Li (2022). We establish that with a…
Claims about recursive self-improvement in AI often slide from repeated internal revision to the possibility of qualitatively stronger capability without clearly distinguishing the underlying computational regimes. This paper gives a formal…
Psi-calculi is a parametric framework for process calculi similar to popular pi-calculus extensions such as the explicit fusion calculus, the applied pi-calculus and the spi calculus. Mechanised proofs of standard algebraic and congruence…
This article shows that PSPACE not equal EXP. A simple but novel proof technique has been used to separate these two classes. Whether an arbitrary Turing machine accepts an input when the running time is limited has been computed in this…
The input/output complexity, which is the complexity of data exchange between the main memory and the external memory, has been elaborately studied by a lot of former researchers. However, the existing works failed to consider the…
We present a self-contained separation framework for P vs NP developed entirely within ZFC. The approach consists of: (i) a deterministic, radius-1 compilation from uniform polynomial-time Turing computation to local sum-of-squares (SoS)…
We study a generalized version of reversal bounded Turing machines where, apart from several tapes on which the number of head reversals is bounded by r(n), there are several further tapes on which head reversals remain unrestricted, but…
In this thesis, we introduce a new quantum Turing machine (QTM) model that supports general quantum operators, together with its pushdown, counter, and finite automaton variants, and examine the computational power of classical and quantum…
Using nonstandard analysis, we will extend the classical Turing machines into the internal Turing machines. The internal Turing machines have the capability to work with infinite ($*$-finite) number of bits while keeping the finite…
The benchmark for computation is typically given as Turing computability; the ability for a computation to be performed by a Turing Machine. Many languages exploit (indirect) encodings of Turing Machines to demonstrate their ability to…
Secure multi-party computation (MPC) offers a practical foundation for privacy-preserving machine learning at the edge. However, current MPC systems rely heavily on communication and computation-intensive primitives-such as secure…
We investigate the capabilities and scalability of Large Language Models (LLMs) in optimization modeling, a domain requiring structured reasoning and precise formulation. To this end, we introduce OPT-ENGINE, an extensible benchmark…
In this paper, we introduce a new public quantum interactive proof system and the first quantum alternating Turing machine: qAM proof system and qATM, respectively. Both are obtained from their classical counterparts (Arthur-Merlin proof…
Williams (STOC 2025) recently proved that time-$t$ multitape Turing machines can be simulated using $O(\sqrt{t \log t})$ space using the Cook-Mertz (STOC 2024) tree evaluation procedure. As Williams notes, applying this result to fast…
When a computer algebra system fails to solve an Ordinary Differential Equation, is this a limitation of its implementation, or a genuine computational barrier? Three traditions bear on the question. Modern computer algebra algorithms can…
The depth-bounded fragment of the pi-calculus is an expressive class of systems enjoying decidability of some important verification problems. Unfortunately membership of the fragment is undecidable. We propose a novel type system,…
We show that alternating Turing machines, with a novel and natural definition of acceptance, accept precisely the inductive (Pi-1-1) languages. Total alternating machines, that either accept or reject each input, accept precisely the…
We investigate the connection between interference and computational power within the operationally defined framework of generalised probabilistic theories. To compare the computational abilities of different theories within this framework…
In this paper, we introduce a new quantum query lower bound framework. It is inspired by Zhandry's compressed oracle technique, but it also subsumes the polynomial method as a special case. Compared to Zhandry's technique, our approach has…
