We investigate the question whether Subset Sum can be solved by a polynomial-time algorithm with access to a certificate of length poly(k) where k is the maximal number of bits in an input number. In other words, can it be solved using only…

In the last decade, the power of the state-of-the-art SAT and Integer Programming solvers has dramatically increased. They implement many new techniques and heuristics and since any NP problem can be converted to SAT or ILP instance, we…

With the increasing availability of parallel computing power, there is a growing focus on parallelizing algorithms for important automated reasoning problems such as Boolean satisfiability (SAT). Divide-and-Conquer (D&C) is a popular…

Computational problem certificates are additional data structures for each output, which can be used by a-possibly randomized-verification algorithm that proves the correctness of each output. In this paper, we give an algorithm that…

We study arithmetic proof systems P_c(F) and P_f(F) operating with arithmetic circuits and arithmetic formulas, respectively, that prove polynomial identities over a field F. We establish a series of structural theorems about these proof…

We develop algorithms for certifying an approximation to a nonsingular solution of a square system of equations built from univariate analytic functions. These algorithms are based on the existence of oracles for evaluating basic data about…

This paper investigates linear programming based branch-and-bound using general disjunctions, also known as stabbing planes, for solving integer programs. We derive the first sub-exponential lower bound (in the encoding length $L$ of the…

Boolean Satisfiability Problem (SAT) is one of the core problems in computer science. As one of the fundamental NP-complete problems, it can be used - by known reductions - to represent instances of variety of hard decision problems.…

In this work, we propose novel method for certifying if a given set of vertex linear systems constitute a linear difference inclusion for a nonlinear system. The method relies on formulating the verification of the inclusion as an…

Finding exact circuit size is a notorious optimization problem in practice. Whereas modern computers and algorithmic techniques allow to find a circuit of size seven in blink of an eye, it may take more than a week to search for a circuit…

In 1989, computer searches by Lam, Thiel, and Swiercz experimentally resolved Lam's problem from projective geometry$\unicode{x2014}$the long-standing problem of determining if a projective plane of order ten exists. Both the original…

The use of Boolean Satisfiability (SAT) solver for hardware verification incurs exponential run-time in several instances. In this work we have proposed an efficient quantum SAT (qSAT) solver for equivalence checking of Boolean circuits…

The past three decades have witnessed notable success in designing efficient SAT solvers, with modern solvers capable of solving industrial benchmarks containing millions of variables in just a few seconds. The success of modern SAT solvers…

Over the last two decades, we have seen a dramatic improvement in the efficiency of conflict-driven clause-learning Boolean satisfiability (CDCL SAT) solvers on industrial problems from a variety of domains. The availability of such…

In this paper, we achieve three primary objectives related to the rigorous computational analysis of nonlinear PDEs posed on complex geometries such as disks and cylinders. First, we introduce a validated Matrix Multiplication Transform…

The combination of uninterpreted function symbols and universal quantification occurs in many applications of automated reasoning, for example, due to their ability to reason about arrays. Yet the satisfiability of such formulas is, in…

Algorithmic tools for graphs of small treewidth are used to address questions in complexity theory. For both arithmetic and Boolean circuits, it is shown that any circuit of size $n^{O(1)}$ and treewidth $O(\log^i n)$ can be simulated by a…

For a given computational problem, a certificate is a piece of data that one (the prover) attaches to the output with the aim of allowing efficient verification (by the verifier) that this output is correct. Here, we consider the minimal…

We extract verified algorithms for exact real number computation from constructive proofs. To this end we use a coinductive representation of reals as streams of binary signed digits. The main objective of this paper is the formalisation of…

We construct 2-query, quasi-linear size probabilistically checkable proofs (PCPs) with arbitrarily small constant soundness, improving upon Dinur's 2-query quasi-linear size PCPs with soundness $1-\Omega(1)$. As an immediate corollary, we…
