Continuous Amortization: A Non-Probabilistic Adaptive Analysis Technique.

TL;DR: This paper introduces a form of continuous amortization for adaptive complexity in subdivision algorithms based on purely numerical primitives such as function evaluation and provides an adaptive upper bound on the complexity of EVAL using an integral, analogous to integral bounds provided by Ruppert in a different context.

TL;DR: It is proved that if there are arithmetic circuits of size polynomial in n for computing the permanent of n by n matrices, then τ(n!) is polynomially bounded in log n.

The complexity of theorem-proving procedures

TL;DR: It is shown that any recognition problem solved by a polynomial time-bounded nondeterministic Turing machine can be “reduced” to the problem of determining whether a given propositional formula is a tautology.
