Jul 31, 2017 at 7:59 comment added domotorp It turned out that Tucker was erroneously claimed to be in PPAD, it is PPA-complete, see [here][1]. This means that Tucker cannot be derived from Sperner, as these classes can be separated by an orcale, see [here][2]. As I wrote earlier, Sperner can be derived from Tucker.

Jun 7, 2013 at 10:10 comment added domotorp Both Borsuk-Ulam and Tucker have been studied and shown to be PPAD-complete in the linked paper. I also believe that this shows that Sperner can be derived from Tucker, however, it would be nice to have a simple, straightforward reduction.
Jun 7, 2013 at 8:42 comment added Rabee Tourky Indeed, I don't think that Tucker has been studied in the context of PPAD complexity. It has been of some interest to me if Borsuk-Ulam is part of this class of path following proofs that Papadimitriou introduced.
