Has There Been Progress on the P vs. NP Question? Scott Aaronson (MIT)
Experimental Complexity Theory Scott Aaronson. Theoretical physics is to this… as theoretical computer science is to what?
Complexity. P=NP? Who knows? Who cares? Lets revisit some questions from last time – How many pairwise comparisons do I need to do to check if a sequence.
