Philip Maymin seems like a serious guy... but that EMH ↔ P=NP paper is absolutely not even remotely a proof. Was genuinely very curious and it's at best an intuition. Some claims, e.g. Knapsack and 3SAT are (almost?) isomorphic to the efficient market hypothesis, are pretty bold. And the justification is hand-wavy at best.
- kd0amg 7y agoIt's not just hand-wavy. It's outright wrong. The size of the search space isn't just exponential in the amount of history -- that's the number of possible histories. The number of mappings from histories to positions is doubly exponential, so they can't even be uniquely described in less than exponential space.

- pmaymin 7y agoWhy must serious guy and nut job be my only two options. And why must they be mutually exclusive.
