The Exact Satisfiability problem, XSAT, is defined as the problem of finding a satisfying assignment to a formula in CNF such that there is exactly one literal in each clause assigned to be 1 and the other literals in the same clause are…

We give a nearly linear-time algorithm to approximately sample satisfying assignments in the random $k$-SAT model when the density of the formula scales exponentially with $k$. The best previously known sampling algorithm for the random…

(k,s)-SAT is the satisfiability problem restricted to instances where each clause has exactly k literals and every variable occurs at most s times. It is known that there exists a function f such that for s\leq f(k) all (k,s)-SAT instances…

The standard proof of NP-Hardness of 3DM provides a power-$4$ reduction of 3SAT to 3DM. In this note, we provide a linear-time reduction. Under the exponential time hypothesis, this reduction improves the runtime lower bound from…

A celebrated result of Hastad established that, for any constant $\varepsilon>0$, it is NP-hard to find an assignment satisfying a $(1/|G|+\varepsilon)$-fraction of the constraints of a given 3-LIN instance over an Abelian group $G$ even if…

The Boolean satisfiability problem (SAT) is a well-known example of monotonic reasoning, of intense practical interest due to fast solvers, complemented by rigorous fine-grained complexity results. However, for non-monotonic reasoning,…

Some high-dimensional data.sets can be modelled by assuming that there are many different linear constraints, each of which is Frequently Approximately Satisfied (FAS) by the data. The probability of a data vector under the model is then…

Random $k$-SAT is the single most intensely studied example of a random constraint satisfaction problem. But despite substantial progress over the past decade, the threshold for the existence of satisfying assignments is not known precisely…

We consider simplified, monotone versions of Not-All-Equal 3-Sat and 3-Sat, variants of the famous Satisfiability Problem where each clause is made up of exactly three distinct literals. We show that Not-All-Equal 3-Sat remains NP-complete…

It is known that random k-CNF formulas have a so-called satisfiability threshold at a density (namely, clause-variable ratio) of roughly 2^k\ln 2: at densities slightly below this threshold almost all k-CNF formulas are satisfiable whereas…

Several fragments of the satisfiability problem have been studied in the literature. Among these, Linear 3-SAT is a satisfaction problem in which each clause (viewed as a set of literals) intersects with at most one other clause; moreover,…

It has been hypothesized that $k$-SAT is hard to solve for randomly chosen instances near the "critical threshold", where the clause-to-variable ratio is $2^k \ln 2-\theta(1)$. Feige's hypothesis for $k$-SAT says that for all sufficiently…

An analysis of the average-case complexity of solving random 3-Satisfiability (SAT) instances with backtrack algorithms is presented. We first interpret previous rigorous works in a unifying framework based on the statistical physics…

Let $\Phi$ be a uniformly random $k$-SAT formula with $n$ variables and $m$ clauses. We study the algorithmic task of finding a satisfying assignment of $\Phi$. It is known that satisfying assignments exist with high probability up to…

For several models of random constraint satisfaction problems, it was conjectured by physicists and later proved that a sharp satisfiability transition occurs. For random $k$-SAT and related models it happens at clause density $\alpha$…

Let $\phi$ be a 3CNF formula with n variables and m clauses. A simple nonconstructive argument shows that when m is sufficiently large compared to n, most 3CNF formulas are not satisfiable. It is an open question whether there is an…

A counting constraint satisfaction problem (#CSP) asks for the number of ways to satisfy a given list of constraints, drawn from a fixed constraint language \Gamma. We study how hard it is to evaluate this number approximately. There is an…

We show that Not-All-Equal 3-Sat remains NP-complete when restricted to instances that simultaneously satisfy the following properties: (i) The clauses are given as the disjoint union of k partitions, for any fixed $k \geq 4$, of the…

This paper presents an algorithm for 3-SAT problems. First, logical formulas are transformed into elementary algebraic formulas. Second, complex trigonometric functions are assigned to the variables in the elementary algebraic formulas, and…

We model Semantic Self-Verification (SSV) as the problem of determining whether a statement accurately characterizes its own semantic properties within a given interpretive framework that formalizes a challenge in AI safety and fairness:…
