They look at such topics as hard examples for bounded depth frege, relations between average case complexity and approximation complexity, algorithmic derandomization via complexity theory, randomness conductors and constant-degree lossless expanders, resolution lower bounds for perfect matching principles, information theory methods in communication complexity, and pseudo-random generators and structure of complete degrees.
