Nondeterministic polynomial time versus nondeterministic logarithmic space: Time-space tradeoffs for satisfiability

L Fortnow - … of Computational Complexity. Twelfth Annual IEEE …, 1997 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We give the first nontrivial model-independent time-space tradeoffs for satisfiability. Namely,
we show that SAT cannot be solved simultaneously in n/sup 1+ 0 (1)/time and n/sup 1-/spl …

Time–space tradeoffs for satisfiability

L Fortnow - Journal of Computer and System Sciences, 2000 - Elsevier
We give the first nontrivial model-independent time–space tradeoffs for satisfiability. Namely,
we show that SAT cannot be solved in n1+ o (1) time and n1− ε space for any ε> 0 general …

Time-space tradeoffs for nondeterministic computation

L Fortnow, D Van Melkebeek - Proceedings 15th Annual IEEE …, 2000 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We show new tradeoffs for satisfiability and nondeterministic linear time. Satisfiability cannot
be solved on general purpose random-access Turing machines in time n/sup 1.618/and …

Time-space lower bounds for satisfiability

L Fortnow, R Lipton, D Van Melkebeek… - Journal of the ACM …, 2005 - dl.acm.org
We establish the first polynomial time-space lower bounds for satisfiability on general
models of computation. We show that for any constant c less than the golden ratio there …

Inductive time-space lower bounds for SAT and related problems

R Williams - computational complexity, 2006 - Springer
We improve upon indirect diagonalization arguments for lower bounds on explicit problems
within the polynomial hierarchy. Our contributions are summarized as follows. 1. We present …

Time-space lower bounds for NP-complete problems

D van Melkebeek - Current Trends in Theoretical Computer Science …, 2004 - World Scientific
We survey the recent lower bounds on the running time of general-purpose randomaccess
machines that solve satisfiability in a small amount of work space, and related lower bounds …

On the complexity of SAT

RJ Lipton, A Viglas - … on Foundations of Computer Science (Cat …, 1999 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We show that non-deterministic time NTIME (n) is not contained in deterministic time n/sup 2-
/spl epsiv//and polylogarithmic space, for any/spl epsiv/> 0. This implies that (infinitely often) …

A time lower bound for satisfiability

D Van Melkebeek, R Raz - Theoretical Computer Science, 2005 - Elsevier
We show that a deterministic Turing machine with one d-dimensional work tape and random
access to the input cannot solve satisfiability in time na for a<(d+ 2)/(d+ 1). For …

The complexity of satisfiability problems

TJ Schaefer - Proceedings of the tenth annual ACM symposium on …, 1978 - dl.acm.org
The problem of deciding whether a given propositional formula in conjunctive normal form is
satisfiable has been widely studied. I t is known that, when restricted to formulas having only …
