Abstract

Joseph and Young [JY-85] hypothesized that the Berman-Hartmanis isomorphism conjecture fails if there exists a k-completely creative set in NP with no p-invertible p-completely productive functions. We verify this hypothesis for DEXT based on new results of p-creative sets in [Wan-89]. In particular, we prove that the isomorphism conjecture for DEXT fails iff there is a p-creative set for P in DEXT with no p-invertible p-productive functions.
