On the Relative Complexity of Resolution Refinements and Cutting Planes Proof Systems
An exponential lower bound for the size of tree-like cutting planes refutations of a certain family of conjunctive normal form (CNF) formulas with polynomial size resolution refuta...

Algebraic Proofs over Noncommutative Formulas
We study possible formulations of algebraic propositional proof systems operating with noncommutative formulas. We observe that a simple formulation gives rise to systems at least ...

Circuit Complexity and Multiplicative Complexity of Boolean Functions
In this note, we use lower bounds on Boolean multiplicative complexity to prove lower bounds on Boolean circuit complexity. We give a very simple proof of a 7n/3 − c lower bound ...

Upper bounds on complexity of Frege proofs with limited use of certain schemata
The paper considers a commonly used axiomatization of the classical propositional logic and studies how different axiom schemata in this system contribute to proof complexity of th...

Nondeterministic Instance Complexity and Proof Systems with Advice
Abstract. Motivated by strong Karp-Lipton collapse results in bounded arithmetic, Cook and Kraj´ıˇcek [7] have recently introduced the notion of propositional proof systems with...
