Degree Bounds on Polynomials and Relativization Theory

Holger Spakowski, Rahul S. Tripathi · Kluwer Academic Publishers eBooks · 2006

We demonstrate the applicability of the polynomial degree bound technique to notions such as the nonexistence of Turing-hard sets in some relativized world, (non)uniform gap-definability, and relativized separations. This way, we settle certain open questions of Hemaspaandra, Ramachandran & Zimand [HRZ95 ] and Fenner, Fortnow & Kurtz [FFK94], extend results of Hemaspaandra, Jain & Vereshchagin [HJV93] and construct oracles achieving desired results.
