In this paper, we examine the claims made by the paper "A polynomial-time algorithm for 3-SAT" by Lizhi Du. The paper claims to provide a polynomial-time algorithm for solving the NP-complete problem 3-SAT. In examining the paper's…

In a recent paper by S. Gubin [cs/0701023v1], a polynomial-time solution to the 3SAT problem was presented as proof that P=NP. The proposed algorithm cannot be made to work, which I shall demonstrate.

In this paper, we examine Quigley's "A Polynomial Time Algorithm for 3SAT" [Qui24]. Quigley claims to construct an algorithm that runs in polynomial time and determines whether a boolean formula in 3CNF form is satisfiable. Such a result…

This paper solves a long standing open problem of whether NP-complete problems could be solved in polynomial time on a deterministic Turing machine by showing that the indistinguishable binomial decision tree can be formed in a 3-SAT…

The question of whether the complexity class P is equal to the complexity class NP has been a seemingly intractable problem for over 4 decades. It has been clear that if an algorithm existed that would solve the problems in the NP class in…

In this paper, we examine Yangjun Chen's technical report titled ``The 2-MAXSAT Problem Can Be Solved in Polynomial Time'' [Che23], which revises and expands upon their conference paper of the same name [Che22]. Chen's paper purports to…

By creating some new concepts and methods: checking tree, long unit path, direct contradiction unit pair, indirect contradiction unit pair, additional contradiction unit pair, 2-unit layer and 3-unit layer, redundant units, and destroying…

In this work, we summarize and critique the paper "Understanding SAT is in P" by Alejandro S\'anchez Guinea [arXiv:1504.00337]. The paper claims to present a polynomial-time solution for the NP-complete language 3-SAT. We show that Guinea's…

We lay the foundations of a new theory for algorithms and computational complexity by parameterizing the instances of a computational problem as a moduli scheme. Considering the geometry of the scheme associated to 3-SAT, we separate P and…

This paper proves that there does not exist a polynomial-time algorithm to the the subset sum problem. As this problem is in NP, the result implies that the class P of problems admitting polynomial-time algorithms does not equal the class…

We examine a proof by Craig Alan Feinstein that P is not equal to NP. We present counterexamples to claims made in his paper and expose a flaw in the methodology he uses to make his assertions. The fault in his argument is the incorrect use…

In this paper, we critically examine Deng's "P=NP" [Den24]. The paper claims that there is a polynomial-time algorithm that decides 3-coloring for graphs with vertices of degree at most 4, which is known to be an NP-complete problem. Deng…

This is a commentary on, and critique of, Latif Salum's paper titled "Tractability of One-in-three $\mathrm{3SAT}$: $\mathrm{P} = \mathrm{NP}$." Salum purports to give a polynomial-time algorithm that solves the $\mathrm{NP}$-complete…

This paper refutes the validity of the polynomial-time algorithm for solving satisfiability proposed by Sergey Gubin. Gubin introduces the algorithm using 3-SAT and eventually expands it to accept a broad range of forms of the Boolean…

We show that the affirmation $P\subseteq NP$ (in computer science) erroneously and we prove the justice of the hypotesis J.Edmonds's $P\neq NP$. We show further that all the $NP$-complete problems is not polynomial and we give the…

In this paper, we analyze the argument made by Kumar in the technical report "Necessary and Sufficient Condition for Satisfiability of a Boolean Formula in CNF and Its Implications on P versus NP problem." The paper claims to present a…

This paper considers the question of P = NP in context of the polynomial time SAT algorithm. It posits proposition dependent on existence of conjectured problem that even where the algorithm is shown to solve SAT in polynomial time it…

This paper is a critique of version three of Joonmo Kim's paper entitled "P is not equal to NP by Modus Tollens. [arXiv:1403.4143v3]" After summarizing Kim's proof, we note that the logic that Kim uses is inconsistent, which provides…

Stephen Cook posited SAT is NP-Complete in 1971. If SAT is NP-Complete then, as is generally accepted, any polynomial solution of it must also present a polynomial solution of all NP decision problems. It is here argued, however, that NP is…

It is shown that any two clauses in an instance of 3SAT sharing the same terminal which is positive in one clause and negated in the other can imply a new clause composed of the remaining terms from both clauses. Clauses can also imply…
