The Blass-Gurevich-Shelah article in the title is [On Polynomial Time Computation Over Unordered Structures]. The open problems are formulated in Section 7. They all are yes/no questions. There are two lists of open questions. The first list contains four open questions. And then there is a list of two additional open questions. Here we

  • recall the six questions,
  • review their current status, and
  • use this opportunity to advertise a related open question by Benjamin Rossman.
