We introduce an algebraic proof system that manipulates multilinear arithmetic formulas. We show that this proof system is fairly strong, even when restricted to multilinear arith...
We develop and study the complexity of propositional proof systems of varying strength extending resolution by allowing it to operate with disjunctions of linear equations instead ...
Craig interpolation is a well known method of abstraction successfully used in both hardware and software model checking. The logical strength of interpolants can affect the quali...

In their seminal paper, Valiant, Skyum, Berkowitz and Rackoff proved that arithmetic circuits can be balanced [VSBR]. That is, [VSBR] showed that for every arithmetic circuit of ...
The sum of a coloring is the sum of the colors assigned to the vertices (assuming that the colors are positive integers). The sum (G) of graph G is the smallest sum that can be ach...
