چکیده

Dependency schemes allow to identify variable independencies in QBFs or DQBFs. For QBF, several dependency schemes have been proposed, which differ in the number of independencies they are able to identify. In this paper, we analyze the spectrum of dependency schemes that were proposed for QBF. It turns out that only some of them are sound for DQBF. For the sound ones, we provide a correctness proof, for the others counter examples. Experiments show that a significant number of dependencies can either be added to or removed from a formula without changing its truth value, but with significantly increasing the flexibility for modifying the representation.

A Resolution-Style Proof System for DQBF

This paper presents a sound and complete proof system for Dependency Quantified Boolean Formulas (DQBF) using resolution, universal reduction, and a new proof rule that we call fork extension.

Preprocessing for DQBF

For SAT and QBF formulas many techniques are applied in order to reduce/modify the number of variables and clauses of the formula, before the formula is passed to the actual solving algorithm. It is well known that these preprocessing techniques often reduce the computation time of the solver by orders of magnitude. In this paper we generalize different preprocessing techniques for SAT and QBF ...

iDQ: Instantiation-Based DQBF Solving

Dependency Quantified Boolean Formulas (DQBF) are obtained by adding Henkin quantifiers to Boolean formulas and have seen growing interest in the last years. Since deciding DQBF is NExpTime-complete, efficient ways of solving it would have many practical applications. Still, there is only few work on solving this kind of formulas in practice. In this paper, we present an instantiation-based tec...

A DPLL Algorithm for Solving DQBF

Dependency Quantified Boolean Formulas (DQBF) comprise the set of propositional formulas which can be formulated by adding Henkin quantifiers to Boolean logic. We are not aware of any published attempt in solving this class of formulas in practice. However with DQBF being NEXPTIME-complete, efficient ways of solving it would have many practical applications. In this paper we describe a DPLL-sty...
