Abstract: Although NP-complete problems have solutions that can be verified in polynomial time, their exponential computational complexity presents significant challenges for classical computing ...

ABSTRACT: We present a new perspective on the P vs NP problem by demonstrating that its answer is inherently observer-dependent in curved spacetime, revealing an oversight in the classical formulation ...
