Can I read Sparse complete sets for coNP: Solution of the P versus NP problem on EtoBox?

Sparse complete sets for coNP: Solution of the P versus NP problem by Frank Vega is a scholarly article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Sparse complete sets for coNP: Solution of the P versus NP problem about?

P versus NP is considered as one of the most important open problems in computer science. This consists in knowing the answer of the following question: Is P equal to NP? A precise statement of the P versus NP problem was introduced independently by Stephen Cook and Leonid Levin. Since that date, all efforts to find a proof for this problem have failed. Another major complexity class is coNP. Whether NP = coNP is another fundamental question that it is as important as it is unresolved. In 1979, Fortune showed that if any sparse language is coNP-complete, then P = NP. We prove there is a possible sparse language in coNP-complete. In this way, we demonstrate the complexity class P is equal to NP.
