A Separation of NP and coNP in Multiparty Communication Complexity (1004.0817v1)
Published 6 Apr 2010 in cs.CC
Abstract: We prove that NP differs from coNP and coNP is not a subset of MA in the number-on-forehead model of multiparty communication complexity for up to k = (1-\epsilon)log(n) players, where \epsilon>0 is any constant. Specifically, we construct a function F with co-nondeterministic complexity O(log(n)) and Merlin-Arthur complexity n{\Omega(1)}. The problem was open for k > 2.
