Abstract
In the previous chapter, we looked at some evidence that the W -hierarchy does not collapse. Here, we will begin by looking at further results that may support this hypothesis. We analyze the following question: “Does W -hierarchy collapse imply anything unreasonable in the classical complexity classes such as NP?”
