Hardness Amplification in Proof Complexity
We present a generic method for converting any family of unsatisfiable CNF formulas that require large resolution rank into CNF formulas whose refutation requires large rank for p...

Resolution and Binary Decision Diagrams Cannot Simulate Each Other Polynomially
There are many different ways of proving formulas in proposition logic. Many of these can easily be characterized as forms of resolution (e.g. [12] and [9]). Others use so-called...

A Proof System and a Decision Procedure for Equality Logic
Equality logic with or without uninterpreted functions is used for proving the equivalence or refinement between systems (hardware verification, compiler’s translation, etc). C...
