System BV is NP-Complete
نویسنده
چکیده
System BV is an extension of multiplicative linear logic (MLL) with the rules mix, nullary mix, and a self-dual, non-commutative logical operator, called seq. While the rules mix and nullary mix extend the deductive system, the operator seq extends the language of MLL. Due to the operator seq, system BV extends the applications of MLL to those where sequential composition is crucial, e.g., concurrency theory. System FBV is an extension of MLL with the rules mix and nullary mix. In this paper, by relying on the fact that system BV is a conservative extension of system FBV, I show that system BV is NP-complete by encoding the 3-Partition problem in FBV. I provide a simple completeness proof of this encoding by resorting to a novel proof theoretical method for reducing nondeterminism in proof search, which is also of independent interest.

متن کاملIs Bit-Vector Reasoning as Hard as NExpTime in Practice?
It has been shown that (quantifier-free) bit-vector logic (BV) is NExpTime-complete, on account of the fact that the number of propositional variables in the SAT encoding of a BV formula grows exponentially with the length of the declarations of the bit-vector variables in the input formula. This level of complexity is surprising, given that in practice BV is being used successfully in a wide r...
متن کاملLayout of Cellular Manufacturing System in Dynamic Condition
Cellular manufacturing system (CMS) is highly important in modern manufacturing methods. Given the ever increasing market competition in terms of time and cost of manufacturing, we need models to decrease the cost and time of manufacturing. In this study, CMS is considered in condition of dynamic demand in each period. The model is developed for facing dynamic demand that increases the cost of ...
متن کاملOn the Characterization of Plane Bus Graphs
Bus graphs are being used for the visualization of hyperedges, for example in VLSI design. Formally, they are specified by bipartite graphs G = (B ∪V,E) of bus vertices B realized by single horizontal and vertical segments, and point vertices V that are connected orthogonally to the bus segments. The decision whether a bipartite graph admits a bus realization is NP-complete. In this paper we sh...
متن کاملInvolvement of PINK1/parkin-mediated mitophagy in ZnO nanoparticle-induced toxicity in BV-2 cells
With the increasing application of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) in biological materials, the neurotoxicity caused by these particles has raised serious concerns. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of the toxic effect of ZnO NPs on brain cells remain unclear. Mitochondrial damage has been reported to be a factor in the toxicity of ZnO NPs. PINK1/parkin-mediated mitophagy is a new...
