We consider a CNF formula $F$ as a multiset of clauses: $F=\{c_1,..., c_m\}$. The set of variables of $F$ will be denoted by $V(F)$. Let $B_F$ denote the bipartite graph with partite sets $V(F)$ and $F$ and with an edge between $v \in V(F)$…

Let F be a CNF formula with n variables and m clauses. F is 3-satisfiable if for any 3 clauses in F, there is a truth assignment which satisfies all of them. Lieberherr and Specker (1982) and, later, Yannakakis (1994) proved that in each…
