Failed literal detection (FL) in SAT is a powerful approach for preprocessing. The basic idea is to assign a variable as assumption. If boolean constraint propagation (BCP) yields ...
SAT and MAX SAT are among the most prominent problems for which local search algorithms have been successfully applied. A fundamental task for such an algorithm is to increase the...
Let Φ be a uniformly distributed random k-SAT formula with n variables and m clauses. We prove that the Walksat algorithm from [16, 17] finds a satisfying assignment of Φ in pol...
