Download or read book Proof Complexity and Feasible Arithmetics written by Paul W. Beame and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1998 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 16 papers reflect some of the breakthroughs over the past dozen years in understanding whether or not logical inferences can be made in certain situations and what resources are necessary to make such inferences, questions that play a large role in computer science and artificial intelligence. They discuss such aspects as lower bounds in proof complexity, witnessing theorems and proof systems for feasible arithmetic, algebraic and combinatorial proof systems, and the relationship between proof complexity and Boolean circuit complexity.
