In this paper a framework is developed for measuring the complexities of deductions in an ab stract and computationally perspicuous man ner. As a notion of central importance ...
We prove that binary decision diagrams [1] can be polynomially simulated by the extended resolution rule of [2]. More precisely, for any unsatisfiable formula , there exists an ex...
Abstract We prove that Polynomial Calculus and Polynomial Calculus with Resolution are not automatizable, unless W[P]-hard problems are fixed parameter tractable by one-side error...
There are many different ways of proving formulas in proposition logic. Many of these can easily be characterized as forms of resolution (e.g. [12] and [9]). Others use so-called...
