If one modifies the laws of Quantum Mechanics to allow nonlinear evolution of quantum states, this paper shows that NP-complete problems would be efficiently solvable in polynomial time with bounded probability (NP in BQP). With that…

In this paper, we take a closer look at Czerwinski's "${\rm P}\neq{\rm NP}$ relative to a ${\rm P}$-complete oracle" [Cze23]. There are (uncountably) infinitely-many relativized worlds where ${\rm P}$ and ${\rm NP}$ differ, and it is…

This article presents counter examples for three articles claiming that P=NP. Articles for which it applies are: Moustapha Diaby "P = NP: Linear programming formulation of the traveling salesman problem" and "Equality of complexity classes…

We consider the thesis that an arithmetical relation, which holds for any, given, assignment of natural numbers to its free variables, is Turing-decidable if, and only if, it is the standard representation of a PA-provable formula. We show…

We show that the problem of finding a Resolution refutation that is at most polynomially longer than a shortest one is NP-hard. In the parlance of proof complexity, Resolution is not automatizable unless P = NP. Indeed, we show it is…

In this article, we investigate the behaviour of TMs with time limit and tape space limit. This problem is in P when the time limit is unary coded. If both limits go to infinity, it is undecidable which limit is exceeded first. Thus…

We prove that P != NP by proving the existence of a class of functions we call Tau, each of whose members satisfies the conditions of one-way functions. Each member of Tau is a function computable in polynomial time, with negligible…

A polynomial-time algorithm for 0-1 integer linear programmings has been proposed. This method continues the classic idea of solving ILP with its LP relaxation. The innovation is that every constraint in the LP is reconstructed into a…

Two theorems about the P versus NP problem be proved in this article (1) There exists a language $L$, that the statement $L \in \textbf{P}$ is independent of ZFC. (2) There exists a language $L \in \textbf{NP}$, for any polynomial time…

We propose a new abstract formalism for probabilistic timed systems, Parametric Interval Probabilistic Timed Automata, based on an extension of Parametric Timed Automata and Interval Markov Chains. In this context, we consider the…

Infinite time Turing machines with only one tape are in many respects fully as powerful as their multi-tape cousins. In particular, the two models of machine give rise to the same class of decidable sets, the same degree structure and, at…

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…

Constraint Satisfaction Problem on finite sets is known to be NP-complete in general but certain restrictions on the constraint language can ensure tractability. It was proved that if a constraint language has a weak near unanimity…

Computational problems are classified into computable and uncomputable problems. If there exists an effective procedure (algorithm) to compute a problem then the problem is computable otherwise it is uncomputable. Turing machines can…

One of the important questions in statistical mechanics is how irreversibility (time's arrow) occurs when Newton equations of motion are time reversal invariant. One objection to irreversibility is based on Poincar\'e's recursion theorem: a…
