Abstract

The purpose of this work is to prove a generalization of the dichotomy theorem from [6], extending that result to a larger class of counting problems. This is achieved through the use of interpolation and holographic reductions. We also use holographic reductions to establish a close connection between a class of problems which are solvable using Fibonacci gates and the class of problems which can be solved by applying a particular kind of counting argument.
