In this paper, we investigate a relationship between many-one-like autoreducibility and completeness for classes of functions computed by polynomial-time nondeterministic Turing transducers. We prove two results. One is that any many-one complete function for these classes is metric many-one autoreducible. The other is that any strict metric many-one complete function for these classes is strict metric many-one autoreducible.

In this paper, we investigate a relationship between the length-decreasing self-reducibility and the many-one-like reducibilities for partial multivalued functions. We show that if any parsimonious (many-one or metric many-one) complete function for NPMV (or NPMVg) is length-decreasing self-reducible, then any function in NPMV (or NPMVg) has a polynomial-time computable refinement. This result implies that there exists an NPMV (or NPMVg)-complete function which is not length-decreasing self-reducible unless P = NP.
