Real Interactive Proofs for VPSPACE

Authors: Martijn Baartse and Klaus Meer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 58, 41st International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2016)


Abstract
We study interactive proofs in the framework of real number complexity as introduced by Blum, Shub, and Smale. The ultimate goal is to give a Shamir like characterization of the real counterpart IP_R of classical IP. Whereas classically Shamir's result implies IP = PSPACE = PAT = PAR, in our framework a major difficulty arises from the fact that in contrast to Turing complexity theory the real number classes PAR_R and PAT_R differ and space resources considered alone are not meaningful. It is not obvious to see whether IP_R is characterized by one of them - and if so by which. In recent work the present authors established an upper bound IP_R is a subset of MA(Exists)R, where MA(Exists)R is a complexity class satisfying PAR_R is a strict subset of MA(Exists)R, which is a subset of PAT_R and conjectured to be different from PAT_R. The goal of the present paper is to complement this result and to prove interesting lower bounds for IP_R. More precisely, we design interactive real protocols for a large class of functions introduced by Koiran and Perifel and denoted by UniformVSPACE^0. As consequence, we show PAR_R is a subset of IP_R, which in particular implies co-NP_R is a subset of IP_R, and P_R^{Res} is a subset of IP_R, where Res denotes certain multivariate Resultant polynomials. Our proof techniques are guided by the question in how far Shamir's classical proof can be used as well in the real number setting. Towards this aim results by Koiran and Perifel on UniformVSPACE^0 are extremely helpful.

The PCP theorem for NP over the reals

Authors: Martijn Baartse and Klaus Meer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 20, 30th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2013)


Abstract
In this paper we show that the PCP theorem holds as well in the real number computational model introduced by Blum, Shub, and Smale. More precisely, the real number counterpart NP_R of the classical Turing model class NP can be characterized as NP_R = PCP_R(O(log n), O(1)). Our proof structurally follows the one by Dinur for classical NP. However, a lot of minor and major changes are necessary due to the real numbers as underlying computational structure. The analogue result holds for the complex numbers and NP_C.

Real Computational Universality: The Word Problem for a class of groups with infinite presentation

Authors: Klaus Meer and Martin Ziegler

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6391, Algorithms and Complexity for Continuous Problems (2007)


Abstract
In this talk we introduce a class of groups represented as quotient groups of some free groups generated by infinitely many elements and certain normal subgroups. We show that the related word problem is universal in the Blum-Shub-Smale model of computation, i.e. it has the same difficulty as the real Halting Problem. This is the first natural example of a problem with this property. The work has been done jointly with Martin Ziegler.

04061 Summary – Real Computation and Complexity

Authors: Thomas Lickteig, Klaus Meer, and Luis Miguel Pardo

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 4061, Real Computation and Complexity (2006)


Abstract
The seminar "Real Computation and Complexity" was intended as a meeting place of several tendencies in the complexity analysis of algorithms in real computation. One main idea therefore was to bring together scientists with rather different backgrounds such as numerical analysis, symbolic computing, real and complex algebraic geometry, logic, differential algebra and computational complexity. This broadness guaranteed to get a thorough overview of current results, methods and trends in the area. It allowed as well to discuss main problems related to all aspects of real computation and complexity from different perspectives.

On the Complexity of Computing Multi-Homogeneous Bézout Numbers

Authors: Klaus Meer and Gregorio Malajovich

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 4401, Algorithms and Complexity for Continuous Problems (2005)


Abstract
We study the question how difficult it is to compute the multi-homogeneous B\'ezout number for a polynomial system of given number $n$ of variables and given support $A$ of monomials with non-zero coefficients. We show that this number is NP-hard to compute. It cannot even be efficiently approximated within an arbitrary, fixed factor unless P = NP. This is joint work with Gregorio Malajovich.

Bridging today's Internet Heterogeneity with a Content-oriented Approach

Authors: Klaus Wehrle

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 4411, Service Management and Self-Organization in IP-based Networks (2005)


Abstract
Despite the success of Internet technology and protocols, their deficiencies become apparent with growing and emerging applications like 3G mobile devices or pervasive environments. In these fields, there is a growing demand for additional support of mobility, multi- or anycast communication, or service composition. ...
