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…
In this paper we propose a new approach for developing a proof that P=NP. We propose to use a polynomial-time reduction of a NP-complete problem to Linear Programming. Earlier such attempts used polynomial-time transformation which is a…
This paper presents the following results on sets that are complete for NP. 1. If there is a problem in NP that requires exponential time at almost all lengths, then every many-one NP-complete set is complete under length-increasing…
In the early 1980s, Selman's seminal work on positive Turing reductions showed that positive Turing reduction to NP yields no greater computational power than NP itself. Thus, positive Turing and Turing reducibility to NP differ sharply…
Schindler recently addressed two versions of the question P $\stackrel{?}{=}$ NP for Turing machines running in transfinite ordinal time. These versions differ in their definition of input length. The corresponding complexity classes are…
The present work proves that P=NP. The proof, presented in this work, is a constructive one: the program of a polynomial time deterministic multi-tape Turing machine M_ExistsAcceptingPath, that determines if there exists an accepting…
We study the problem of learning linear temporal logic (LTL) formulas from examples, as a first step towards expressing a property separating positive and negative instances in a way that is comprehensible for humans. In this paper we…
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 develop a complexity theory for approximate real computations. We first produce a theory for exact computations but with condition numbers. The input size depends on a condition number, which is not assumed known by the machine. The…
The P versus NP problem is studied under the relational model of E. F. Codd. I found that the term "complete configuration" is unnecessary and harmful in computational complexity theory because of excessive symbol redundancy. For an input,…
In CSL'99 Roversi pointed out that the Turing machine encoding of Girard's seminal paper "Light Linear Logic" has a flaw. Moreover he presented a working version of the encoding in Light Affine Logic, but not in Light Linear Logic. In this…
Toda proved in 1989 that the (discrete) polynomial time hierarchy, $\mathbf{PH}$, is contained in the class $\mathbf{P}^{#\mathbf{P}}$, namely the class of languages that can be decided by a Turing machine in polynomial time given access to…
In this paper, we inquire the key concept P-reduction in Cook's theorem and reveal that there exists the fallacy of definition in P-reduction caused by the disguised displacement of NDTM from Oracle machine to Turing machine. The definition…
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…
Ten years ago, Gla{\ss}er, Pavan, Selman, and Zhang [GPSZ08] proved that if P $\neq$ NP, then all NP-complete sets can be simply split into two NP-complete sets. That advance might naturally make one wonder about a quite different potential…
We investigate machine models similar to Turing machines that are augmented by the operations of a first-order structure $\mathcal{R}$, and we show that under weak conditions on $\mathcal{R}$, the complexity class $\text{NP}(\mathcal{R})$…
We prove in this paper that there is a language $L_s$ accepted by some nondeterministic Turing machine that runs within time $O(n^k)$ for any positive integer $k\in\mathbb{N}_1$ but not by any ${\rm co}\mathcal{NP}$ machines. Then we…
This article discusses ability of Linear Programming models to be used as solvers of NP-complete problems. Integer Linear Programming is known as NP-complete problem, but non-integer Linear Programming problems can be solved in polynomial…
This paper talk about that NP is not AL and P, P is not NC, NC is not NL, and NL is not L. The point about this paper is the depend relation of the problem that need other problem's result to compute it. I show the structure of depend…
Leivant's ramified recurrence is one of the earliest examples of an implicit characterization of the polytime functions as a subalgebra of the primitive recursive functions. Leivant's result, however, is originally stated and proved only…
