Q233.

Consider two languages L1 and L2 each on the alphabet \Sigma. Let f:\Sigma \rightarrow \Sigma be a polynomial time computable bijection such that (\forall x)[x \in L1 \; \; if \; \; f(x) \in L2]. Further, let f^{-1} be also polynomial time computable. Which of the following CANNOT be true?

Q234.

Define languages L0 and L1 as follows : L0 = {< M, w, 0 > | M halts on w} L1 = {< M, w, 1 > | M does not halts on w} Here < M, w, i > is a triplet, whose first component. M is an encoding of a Turing Machine, second component, w, is a string, and third component, i, is a bit. Let L=L0 \cup L1. Which of the following is true ?
