Near-Optimal Conversion of Hardness into Pseudo-Randomness
Various efforts ([?, ?, ?]) have been made in recent years to derandomize probabilistic algorithms using the complexity theoretic assumption that there exists a problem in E = dti...

On Bounded Truth-Table, Conjunctive, and Randomized Reductions to Sparse Sets
In this paper we study the consequences of the existence of sparse hard sets for NP and other complexity classes under certain types of deterministic, randomized, and nondetermini...
