The maximum constraint satisfaction problem (Max CSP) is the following computational problem: an instance is a finite collection of constraints on a set of variables, and the goal...

One of the important components of a local search strategy for satisfiability testing is the variable selection heuristic, which determines the next variable to be flipped. In a...
We consider the relationship between the complexities of - and those of restricted to formulas of constant density. Let be the infimum of those such that - on variables can be dec...

We propose a new arithmetic reasoning calculus to speed up a SAT solver based on the Davis Putnam Longman Loveland (DPLL) procedure. It is based on an arithmetic bit level descrip...
Abstract. We present a new generic problem solving approach for overconstrained problems based on Max-SAT. We first define a clausal form formalism that deals with blocks of clau...
