  • Abstract
    We consider the following six hypotheses: *P=NP. *SAT is truth-table reducible to a P-selective set. *SAT is truth-table reducible to a k-approximable set for some k. *FP||NP =FPNP[log] *SAT is O(log n)-approximable. *Solving SAT is in P on formulae with at most one assignment. We discuss their importance and relationships among them
