After typing
man ap
if I press tab twice nothing happens. Same thing after typing
sudo ap
But if I simply type
ap
and press tab twice I get completions.

This problem started after I deleted hidden files (files that start with a dot) in my home directory.

You have deleted .bashrc file.
It's hard to recover everything after such operation (deleted all hidden files in your /home/<you>); probably you'll have other dysfunctions as well.
You can "recover" .bashrc file creating another user (profile) and then copy on your user (profile) that file.
Good luck.

cp /etc/skel/{.bashrc,.bash_logout,.profile} ~/ && . ~/.bashrc
The above code worked. Problem solved.
