Proof Complexity Meets Algebra [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Computational Logic, 2018
We analyze how the standard reductions between constraint satisfaction problems affect their proof complexity. We show that, for the most studied propositional, algebraic, and semialgebraic proof systems, the classical constructions of pp-interpretability, homomorphic equivalence, and addition of constants to a core preserve the proof complexity of the

Linguistic Complexity and Argumentative Unity: A Lvov-Warsaw School Supplement

open access: yesStudies in Logic, Grammar and Rhetoric, 2014
It is argued that the source of complexity in language is twofold: repetition, and syntactic embedding. The former enables us to return again and again to the same subject across many sentences, and to maintain the coherence of an argument. The latter is

Proof equivalence in MLL is PSPACE-complete [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2016
MLL proof equivalence is the problem of deciding whether two proofs in multiplicative linear logic are related by a series of inference permutations. It is also known as the word problem for star-autonomous categories. Previous work has shown the problem

General bounds on holographic complexity

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We prove a positive volume theorem for asymptotically AdS spacetimes: the maximal volume slice has nonnegative vacuum-subtracted volume, and the vacuum-subtracted volume vanishes if and only if the spacetime is identically pure AdS.

Identification of key influencing factors of railway tunnel water-proof slab test data based on RF-SFS algorithm

open access: yesMeasurement: Sensors, 2021
Aiming at railway products with high complexity of parameter features, a method for identifying key influencing factors of railway product testing based on random forest (RF) and sequential forward selection (SFS) algorithm is proposed to assist the ...

On the complexity of proof deskolemization

open access: yesThe Journal of Symbolic Logic, 2012
AbstractWe consider the following problem: Given a proof of the Skolemization of a formulaF, what is the length of the shortest proof ofF? For the restriction of this question to cut-free proofs we prove corresponding exponential upper and lower bounds.

Pedagogical implications of students’ misconceptions about deductive geometric proof

open access: yesActa Academica, 2012
The role of proof in school geometry has been a subject of intense debate throughout the twentieth century and that debate persists even today. This study aims to identify and analyse deductive geometric proof difficulties encountered by Bachelor of ...
