Title: An overview of the P versus NP problem
Abstract:
The P versus NP problem is one of the 7 Clay millennium problems and is a central question in theoretical computer science.
In this presentation I will give an overview of the problem and some of the approaches taken to tackle it. I will end with some connections to my own research, relating to complexity theory and quantum computing.
