The means and ends of information theory and computational
complexity have grown significantly closer over the past decade.
Common analytic tools, such as combinatorial mathematics and
information flow arguments, have been the cornerstone of VLSl
complexity and cooperative computation. The basic assumption of
limited computing resources is the premise for cryptography, where
the distinction is made between available information and
accessible information. Numerous other examples of common goals and
tools between the two disciplines have shaped a new research
category of 'information and complexity theory'. This volume is
intended to expose to the research community some of the recent
significant topics along this theme. The contributions selected
here are all very basic, presently active, fairly well-established,
and stimulating for substantial follow-ups. This is not an
encyclopedia on the subject, it is concerned only with timely
contributions of sufficient coherence and promise. The styles of
the six chapters cover a wide spectrum from specific mathematical
results to surveys of large areas. It is hoped that the technical
content and theme of this volume will help establish this general
research area. I would like to thank the authors of the chapters
for contributing to this volume. I also would like to thank Ed
Posner for his initiative to address this subject systematically,
and Andy Fyfe and Ruth Erlanson for proofreading some of the
chapters.
