A structural complexity approach to propositional proof systems

Objective



The purpose of the project is to give a new approach, based on structural complexity techniques, to solve problems arising in field of complexity of proofs in propositional proof systems. In particular we intend to: -improve the proofs of existing lower bounds for known proof systems using new complexity techniques (like Kolmogorov Complexity);
-apply results about relationship between complexity classes to compare different proof systems;
-establish the exact correspondence between proof system complexity and circuit complexity;
-prove new lower bounds applying both new combinatorial techniques from Kolmogorov complexity and probabilistic arguments.
We intend to develop the project during the four years PhD degree requires.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Call for proposal

Procedure for inviting applicants to submit project proposals, with the aim of receiving EU funding.
