We consider semidefinite programming (SDP) approaches for solving the maximum satisfiability problem (MAX-SAT) and the weighted partial MAX-SAT. It is widely known that SDP is well-suited to approximate the (MAX-)2-SAT. Our work shows the…

The satisfiability problem is NP-complete but there are subclasses where all the instances are satisfiable. For this, restrictions on the shape of the formula are made. Darman and D\"ocker show that the subclass MONOTONE $3$-SAT-($k$,1)…

Since the early 2000s physicists have developed an ingenious but non-rigorous formalism called the cavity method to put forward precise conjectures on phase transitions in random problems [Mezard, Parisi, Zecchina: Science 2002]. The cavity…

The random k-SAT model is the most important and well-studied distribution over k-SAT instances. It is closely connected to statistical physics; it is used as a testbench for satisfiability algorithms, and average-case hardness over this…

We consider fermionic fully-packed loop and quantum dimer models which serve as effective low-energy models for strongly correlated fermions on a checkerboard lattice at half and quarter filling, respectively. We identify a large number of…

The random $k$-SAT problem serves as a model that represents the 'typical' $k$-SAT instances. This model is thought to undergo a phase transition as the clause density changes, and it is believed that the random $k$-SAT problem is primarily…

The random 3-satisfiability (3-SAT) problem is in the unsatisfiable (UNSAT) phase when the clause density $\alpha$ exceeds a critical value $\alpha_s \approx 4.267$. However, rigorously proving the unsatisfiability of a given large 3-SAT…

We consider the complexity of the local Hamiltonian problem in the context of fermionic Hamiltonians with $\mathcal N=2 $ supersymmetry and show that the problem remains $\mathsf{QMA}$-complete. Our main motivation for studying this is the…

DNA computation could in principle solve the satisfiability (SAT) problem due to the operations in parallel on extremely large numbers of strands. We demonstrate some quantum gates corresponding to the DNA ones, based on which an…

The $N$-representability problem is the problem of determining whether or not there exists $N$-particle states with some prescribed property. Here we report an affirmative solution to the fermion $N$-representability problem when both the…

The Random Satisfiability problem has been intensively studied for decades. For a number of reasons the focus of this study has mostly been on the model, in which instances are sampled uniformly at random from a set of formulas satisfying…

The $k$-CombDMR problem is that of determining whether an $n \times n$ distance matrix can be realised by $n$ vertices in some undirected graph with $n + k$ vertices. This problem has a simple solution in the case $k=0$. In this paper we…

We investigate $(k_1,k_2)$-extendibility of fermionic Gaussian states, a property central to quantum correlations and approximations of separability. We show that these states are $(k_1,k_2)$-extendible if and only if they admit a fermionic…
