This paper proves that “promise classes” are so fragilely structured that they do not robustly (i.e. with respect to all oracles) possess Turinghard sets even in classes far larger than themselves. In particular, this paper shows that FewP does not robustly possess Turing hard sets for UP ∩ coUP and IP ∩ coIP does not robustly possess Turing hard sets for ZPP. It follows that ZPP, R, coR, UP∩co...
