Sub-Constant Error Probabilistically Checkable Proof of Almost-Linear Size
2009
Computational Complexity
We show a construction of a P CP with both sub-constant error and almost-linear size. ...
Its main ingredients are a recent low degree test with both sub-constant error and almost-linear size [12] and a new method for constructing a short list of balanced curves. ...
Sub-Constant Error and Almost-Linear Size The question of whether there exist P CP s with both sub-constant error and almost-linear size was open. ...

Overall, the reduction from "is there a proof of size n?" to the gap problem is essentially equivalent to a transformation of a proof to a probabilistically checkable format. ...

Sub-Constant Error Low Degree Test of Almost-Linear Size
2008
SIAM journal on computing (Print)
Previous constructions of almost-linear size testers obtained only constant error [13, 7] . ...
We design and analyze new low degree testers that have both sub-constant error o(1) and almost-linear size n 1+o(1) (where n = |F| m ). ...
However, at this point, these constructions achieve neither sub-constant error nor almost-linear size. ...

Unconditional Lower Bounds against Advice
[chapter]
2009
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We also consider the question of whether these lower bounds can be made to work on almost all input lengths rather than on infinitely many. ...
For the probabilistic classes, no lower bounds for uniform exponential time against advice were known before. ...

Probabilistic Checking Against Non-Signaling Strategies from Linearity Testing
2018
Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science
A central tool for these applications is probabilistically checkable proofs (PCPs) that are sound against non-signaling strategies. ...
Our result offers a new length-vs-query tradeoff when compared to the non-signaling PCP of Kalai, Raz, and Rothblum (STOC 2013 and 2014) and, moreover, may serve as an intermediate step to a proof of a ...

We show that there exist properties that are maximally hard for testing, while still admitting PCPPs with a proof size very close to linear. ...
