1. Space in Proof Complexity
Sammanfattning : ropositional proof complexity is the study of the resources that are needed to prove formulas in propositional logic. In this thesis we are concerned with the size and space of proofs, and in particular with the latter.Different approaches to reasoning are captured by corresponding proof systems. LÄS MER
2. Lower Bounds and Trade-offs in Proof Complexity
Sammanfattning : Propositional proof complexity is a field in theoretical computer science that analyses the resources needed to prove statements. In this thesis, we are concerned about the length of proofs and trade-offs between different resources, such as length and space. LÄS MER
3. On Some Combinatorial Optimization Problems : Algorithms and Complexity
Sammanfattning : This thesis is about the computational complexity of several classes of combinatorial optimization problems, all related to the constraint satisfaction problems.A constraint language consists of a domain and a set of relations on the domain. For each such language there is a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP). LÄS MER
4. On Long Proofs of Simple Truths
Sammanfattning : Propositional proof complexity is the study of certificates of infeasibility. In this thesis we consider several proof systems with limited deductive ability and unconditionally show that they require long refutations of the feasibility of certain Boolean formulas. LÄS MER
5. Short Proofs May Be Spacious : Understanding Space in Resolution
Sammanfattning : Om man ser på de bästa nu kända algoritmerna för att avgöra satisfierbarhet hos logiska formler så är de allra flesta baserade på den så kallade DPLL-metoden utökad med klausulinlärning. De två viktigaste gränssättande faktorerna för sådana algoritmer är hur mycket tid och minne de använder, och att förstå sig på detta är därför en fråga som har stor praktisk betydelse. LÄS MER
