Resolution cannot polynomially simulate compressed-BFS
Many algorithms for Boolean satisfiability (SAT) work within the framework of resolution as a proof system, and thus on unsatisfiable instances they can be viewed as attempting to...

From Feasible Proofs to Feasible Computations
We shall discuss several situations in which it is possible to extract from a proof, be it a proof in a first-order theory or a propositional proof, some feasible computational inf...

Proof-Theoretic Approach to Description-Logic
In recent work Baader has shown that a certain description logic with conjunction, existential quantification and with circular definitions has a polynomial time subsumption pro...

Optimal Acceptors and Optimal Proof Systems
Unless we resolve the P vs NP question, we are unable to say whether there is an algorithm (acceptor) that accepts Boolean tautologies in polynomial time and does not accept non-ta...

IP = PSPACE using Error Correcting Codes
The IP theorem, which asserts that IP = PSPACE (Lund et. al., and Shamir, in J. ACM 39(4)), is one of the major achievements of complexity theory. The known proofs of the theorem ...
