Detecting Disjoint Inconsistent Subformulas for Computing Lower Bounds for Max-SAT
Many lower bound computation methods for branch and bound Max-SAT solvers can be explained as procedures that search for disjoint inconsistent subformulas in the Max-SAT instance ...

FPRAS for computing a lower bound for weighted matching polynomial of graphs
We give a fully polynomial randomized approximation scheme to compute a lower bound for the matching polynomial of any weighted graph at a positive argument. For the matching poly...

Exploiting Inference Rules to Compute Lower Bounds for MAX-SAT Solving
In this paper we present a general logical framework for (weighted) MAX-SAT problem, and study properties of inference rules for branch and bound MAX-SAT solver. Several rules, wh...

Algebraic Lower Bounds for Computing on Encrypted Data
In cryptography, there has been tremendous success in building primitives out of homomorphic semantically-secure encryption schemes, using homomorphic properties in a blackbox way...

New Monotones and Lower Bounds in Unconditional Two-Party Computation
Since bit and string oblivious transfer and commitment, two primitives of paramount importance in secure two- and multi-party computation, cannot be realized in an unconditionally ...
