Pebbling and Proofs of Work
We investigate methods for providing easy-to-check proofs of computational effort. Originally intended for discouraging spam, the concept has wide applicability as a method for co...

On the Relative Strength of Pebbling and Resolution
The last decade has seen a revival of interest in pebble games in the context of proof complexity. Pebbling has proven to be a useful tool for studying resolution-based proof syst...

Pebbling and optimal pebbling in graphs
Given a distribution of pebbles on the vertices of a graph G, a pebbling move takes two pebbles from one vertex and puts one on a neighboring vertex. The pebbling number (G) is th...

Computation of Binary Objects Sides Number using Discrete Geometry, Application to Automatic Pebbles Shape Analysis
We are working in collaboration with geographers to study a set of pebbles digital images. Among the features geographers want to get automatically, pebble sides number is intuiti...

Size space tradeoffs for resolution
We investigate tradeoffs of various basic complexity measures such as size, space and width. We show examples of formulas that have optimal proofs with respect to any one of these...
