Local-Search Techniques for Boolean Combinations of Pseudo-Boolean Constraints
Some search problems are most directly specified by boolean combinations of pseudo-boolean constraints. We study a logic PL(PB) whose formulas are of this form, and design local-s...

A Stronger LP Bound for Formula Size Lower Bounds via Clique Constraints
We introduce a new technique proving formula size lower bounds based on the linear programming bound originally introduced by Karchmer, Kushilevitz and Nisan [11] and the theory of...
