Using CSP To Improve Deterministic 3-SAT

Data Structures and Algorithms 2010-07-27 v2

Abstract

We show how one can use certain deterministic algorithms for higher-value constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) to speed up deterministic local search for 3-SAT. This way, we improve the deterministic worst-case running time for 3-SAT to O(1.439^n).
