Ask HN: New Resources for Learning Complexity Theory
A few years ago in 2021, I put together a guide to resources for learning computational complexity theory at the graduate level [0]. Think time and space complexity, hierarchy theorems, and circuit complexity.
For video lectures, for instance, I recommended Ryan O’Donnell undergraduate [1] and graduate classes [2] at CMU. To keep this up to date, I want to add more options for lecture notes and videos.
Have you worked through a new book or a recent set of lectures that were helpful?
