$overline{SAT} in NTIME(subexp)$?

Is it possible that $overline{SAT} in NTIME(exp(n^{0.9}))$ ? Are there interesting consequences of such containment? Would it contradict the Exponential Time Hypothesis?

#EXP-Complete problems

Let #EXP be the counting variant of NEXP, in the same way that #P is the counting variant of NP. Are there any known #EXP-complete problems? In particular, has #Succinct Sat (the natural candidate)...

What do we know about $text{P}^text{NE}$

I have a $text{NEXP}$-hard problem, that can be solved by a $text{NEXP}^text{NP}$ algorithm using a single oracle call. So from Hemaspaandra we know it is in $text{P}^text{NE}$, giving us...

Correctly formulating the padding technique [on hold]

I’m studying a proof in the book Computational Complexity: A Modern Approach. In this book there’s a proof showing that If EXP /= NEXP, then P/=NP. To proof this, they use the padding technique....

Is there a counting complexity class for succint problems?

Encoding NP-complete problems succintly often makes them NEXP-complete. I am wondering if counting the number of solutions to such a problem with a succint encoding would be any harder than solving the...

What is the evidence for average case separation between EXP and NEXP?

There is significant evidence from cryptography that there exist NP-complete problems that are hard in the average case (meaning that e.g. $AvgP nsupseteq DistNP$). Namely, we have candidate one-way...
