NP search problems and reductions among them Renáta Ševčíková In the thesis we study the class of Total NP search problems. More attention is devoted to study the subclasses of Total NP search problems and reductions among them. We combine some known methods: the search trees and their relation to re- ductions, the Nullstellensatz refutation and the degree lower bound based on design to show that two classes of relativized NP search problems based on Mod-p counting principle and Mod-q counting principle, where p and q are different primes, are not reducible to each other. This thesis is finished by a new separation result for p = 2 and q = 3.
