Abstract

I gave talks at the conference Alan Turing’s Heritage: Logic, Computation & Complexity in Lyon, France on July 3, 2012, at the Pierre and Marie Curie University (UPMC) Paris 6, France on July 17, 2012, and at the Tenth Asian Symposium on Computer Mathematics (ASCM) in Beijing, China, on October 26, 2012 on the complexity theoretic hardness of many problems that the discipline of symbolic computation tackles.
