Is there an oracle $A$ with $P^A = NP^A$, but $EXP^A \not= NEXP^A$ ?
I found a proof with padding arguments (wikipedia), that $$ P = NP \Rightarrow EXP = NEXP $$ If an oracle $A$ exists with $P=NP$ and $EXP\not=NEXP$ relative to $A$ then the padding technique would be a proof methode, that circumvents the Relativization Barrier.
Maybe padding arguments can help to solve problems like P vs. NP.
