Dear participants,
Today on the seminar there will be a continuation of the talk by Fyodor Kuselyov about classes of total search problems and (ir)reducibilities among them. The last time we talked about interrelations between white-box and black-box models. This time we will focus at the black-box model, and the talk will be almost independent of the first one. The plan of the talk is the following:
• Examples of reductions in black-box TFNP
• Definition and motivation of partial assignments
• Irreducibility of PPP to PLS
• Randomized reductions
• Presentation of a new result

Best regards,
Daniil Musatov
