We show that the Satisfiability (SAT) problem for CNF formulas with {\beta}-acyclic hypergraphs can be solved in polynomial time by using a special type of Davis-Putnam resolution in which each resolvent is a subset of a parent clause. We…
The computational cost of counting the number of solutions satisfying a Boolean formula, which is a problem instance of #SAT, has proven subtle to quantify. Even when finding individual satisfying solutions is computationally easy (e.g.…
We show a method resulting in the improvement of several polynomial-space, exponential-time algorithms. An instance of the problem Max (r,2)-CSP, or simply Max 2-CSP, is parametrized by the domain size r (often 2), the number of variables n…
