The History and Status of the P versus NP Question
- this article, I have attempted to organize and describe this literature, including an occasional opinion about the most fruitful directions, but no technical details. In the first half of this century, work on the power of formal systems led to the formalization of the notion of algorithm and the re

On IP = PSPACE and Theorems with Narrow Proofs
- It has been shown that the class of languages with interactive proofs, IP, is exactly the class PSPACE. This surprising result elegantly places IP in the standard classification of feasible computations. Furthermore, the IP = PSPACE result reveals some very interesting and unsuspected properties of

Space Bounded Computations: Review And New Separation Results
- In this paper we review the key results about space bounded complexity classes, discuss the central open problems and outline the prominent proof techniques. We show that, for a slightly modified Turing machine model, low level deterministic and nondeterministic space bounded complexity classes are

Relativization: A revisionistic retrospective
- In this column we examine the role of relativization in complexity theory in light of recent non-relativizing results involving interactive protocols. We begin with the twice-told tale of the relativization principle and ponder upon its possible demise. Then, we discuss whether usual assumptions are

Some observations about relativization of space bounded computations
- In this column we explore what relativization says about space bounded computations and what recent results about space bounded computations say about relativization. There is a strong belief in computational complexity circles that problems which can be relativized in two contradictory ways are ver

The Random Oracle Hypothesis is False
- The Random Oracle Hypothesis, attributed to Bennett and Gill, essentially states that the relationships between complexity classes which hold for almost all relativized worlds must also hold in the unrelativized case. Although this paper is not the first to provide a counterexample to the Random Ora

Rabin Measures
- Rabin conditions are a general class of properties of infinite sequences that encompass most known automata-theoretic acceptance conditions and notions of fairness. In this paper, we introduce a concept, called a Rabin measure, which in a precise sense expresses progress for each transition toward s

Probabilistically Checkable Debate Systems and Nonapproximability of PSPACE-Hard Functions
- We initiate an investigation of probabilistically checkable debate systems (PCDS), a natural generalization of probabilistically checkable proof systems (PCPS). A PCDS for a language L consists of a probabilistic polynomial-time verifier V and a debate between player 1, who claims that the input x i
