    Supports→The Polynomial Hierarchy PH is expected to not collapse to any fixed level Σ^P_k
    Supports→The Polynomial Hierarchy does not collapse to any finite level (Σ^P_k ⊊ Σ^P_{k+1} for all k)
    Supports→The Polynomial Hierarchy does not collapse, i.e., for all k, Σ^P_k is properly contained in Σ^P_{k+1} and Σ^P_k ≠ Π^P_k

    SEP: computational-complexity
    View source passageHide passage
    Consider, for instance the following variation on the standard rules of Go: (i) the game is played on an \(n \times n\) board; (ii) the winner of the game is the player with the most stones at the end of \(n^2\) rounds. e. the player who moves first)? [30] What these games have in common is that the definition of a winning strategy for the player who moves first involves the alternation of existential and universal quantifiers in a manner which mimics the definition of the classes \(\Sigma^P_n\)
