The Complexity of Some Subclasses of Minimal Unsatis able Formulas
This paper is concerned with the complexity of some natural subclasses of minimal unsatisfiable formulas. We show the DP –completeness of the classes of maximal and marginal mi...

Sharp Quantum versus Classical Query Complexity Separations
We obtain the strongest separation between quantum and classical query complexity known to date--specifically, we define a black-box problem that requires exponentially many querie...

Strong direct product theorems for quantum communication and query complexity
A strong direct product theorem (SDPT) states that solving n instances of a problem requires ˝.n/ times the resources for a single instance, even to achieve success probability 2 ...

The Complexity of Probabilistic Lobbying
Abstract. We propose various models for lobbying in a probabilistic environment, in which an actor (called “The Lobby”) seeks to influence the voters’ preferences of voting ...

On the Complexity of the Asymmetric VPN Problem
We give the first constant factor approximation algorithm for the asymmetric Virtual Private Network (Vpn) problem with arbitrary concave costs. We even show the stronger result, ...
