Exploiting structure in symmetry detection for CNF
Instances of the Boolean satisfiability problem (SAT) arise in many areas of circuit design and verification. These instances are typically constructed from some human-designed ar...

On the Compressibility of NP Instances and Cryptographic Applications
We study compression that preserves the solution to an instance of a problem rather than preserving the instance itself. Our focus is on the compressibility of NP decision problem...

If NP Languages are Hard on the Worst-Case, Then it is Easy to Find Their Hard Instances
We prove that if NP ⊆ BPP, i.e., if SAT is worst-case hard, then for every probabilistic polynomial-time algorithm trying to decide SAT, there exists some polynomially samplable ...
