Negative Ordered Hyper-Resolution as a Proof Procedure for Disjunctive Logic Programming
We prove that negative hyper-resolution using any liftable and well-founded ordering refinement is a sound and complete procedure for answering queries in disjunctive logic program...

Logic Programming in a Fragment of Intuitionistic Linear Logic
When logic programming is based on the proof theory of intuitionistic logic, it is natural to allow implications in goals and in the bodies of clauses. Attempting to prove a goal ...

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 ...

A New Quantum Lower Bound Method, with an Application to a Strong Direct Product Theorem for Quantum Search
Abstract: We present a new method for proving lower bounds on quantum query algorithms. The new method is an extension of the adversary method, by analyzing the eigenspace structur...

Constructive Proofs of Concentration Bounds
We give a simple combinatorial proof of the Chernoff-Hoeffding concentration bound [Che52, Hoe63], which says that the sum of independent {0, 1}-valued random variables is highly ...
