I posted a paper on the arxiv.org site which claims that p!=np on May 20. I got a lackluster response to it which was partially my fault, since I didn't write...

Dear too_bad_u_wrong I believe I considered this case in the proof. I clearly noted that the number of possible inputs is large enough so that no look-up- ...

cafeinst: What you are missing in your proof is completeness. If you want to prove a problem is not solvable in polynomial time then it must be shown that...

Let me respond anyway to your comments. I proved that an n-optimal algorithm must take exponential time. Then by definition of an n- optimal algorithm, any...
This is not exactly my speciality, but it seems to me that you could have proven that if SUBSET-SUM is in Co-NP, then Co-NP != P. Question: is SUBSET-SUM in...

Mikhael, Thank you for reading my short paper. Any more feedback is welcome but unfortunately I don't have much time for more comments as I'm also proving the...
hi mike, Im a little weak on the topics you are covering, but I think you didnt quite make it clear that when you say NP != E, the proof is that NP < E where...
