During the academic year 2000-2001, the School of Mathematics will host a special program on computational complexity theory at the Institute for Advanced Study. Several senior researchers will be in residence at the Institute for the year, and we expect a large number of junior visitors and post-doctorate fellows. Some topics on which special focus is planned are:
- Boolean and Algebraic complexity -- ( towards P vs NP )
- Proof complexity -- ( towards NP vs coNP )
- Computational Randomness -- ( towards P vs BPP vs EXP )

John Hastad, Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden.
Pavel Pudlak, The Czeck Academy of Sciences, Czeck Republic. (Fall Term Only.)
Ran Raz, The Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel.
Alexander Razborov, Steklov Mathematical Institute, Russia.
