Theory of Computing

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024. Courses of Study 2023-2024 is scheduled to publish mid-June.

Computational complexity theory is devoted to understanding the limitations of efficient computation (with respect to computational resources such as time, space and randomness). This course will be a graduate level introduction to various aspects of complexity theory, with basics topics including time/space complexity, NP completeness, and the polynomial hierarchy, and advanced topics such as the PCP theorem, randomness and derandomization, circuit lower bounds, etc.

When Offered Fall.

Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: CS 4810, CS 4820 or CS 4814, or permission of instructor.
