A Study of Proof Search Algorithms for Resolution and Polynomial Calculus
This paper is concerned with the complexity of proofs and of searching for proofs in two propositional proof systems: Resolution and Polynomial Calculus (PC). For the former syste...

Certification of Automated Termination Proofs
Abstract. Nowadays, formal methods rely on tools of different kinds: proof assistants with which the user interacts to discover a proof step by step; and fully automated tools whic...

Cosmological lower bound on the circuit complexity of a small problem in logic
An exponential lower bound on the circuit complexity of deciding the weak monadic second-order theory of one successor (WS1S) is proved. Circuits are built from binary operations, ...

Concurrent Zero Knowledge with Logarithmic Round-Complexity
We show that every language in NP has a (black-box) concurrent zero-knowledge proof system using ˜O(log n) rounds of interaction. The number of rounds in our protocol is optimal,...
