Abstract: . A detailed model of a random access computation over an abstract domain is presented, and the existence of an NP-complete problem is proven under broad conditions which unify Cook's theorem and recent results in the real number model by Blum, Shub and Smale. 1. Introduction Blum, Shub and Smale [2] formalized a model of computation over a general ring. They proved an analogue of Cook's theorem [3] over the reals. Smale [4] has recently raised the question of existence of NP-complete problems... (Update)

...are especially encouraged by S. Smale s question if there are NP complete sets over the structures R lin or R lin; see [43, 44, 47]. K. Meer [43] conjectured that this is not the case, since these structures don t even own universal functions. Recently, C. Ganer...

...the real closed fields) 6.2. TheBSS theory of computation can be carried over general first order structures (as done in [FM] Go] or [Meg]) and NP complete problem can be found (see [Go] and [Meg] All the results of the preceding sections can be done in this more general...
