Exhaustive enumeration unveils clustering and freezing in random 3-SAT
We study geometrical properties of the complete set of solutions of the random 3-satisfiability problem. We show that even for moderate system sizes the number of clusters corresponds surprisingly well with the theoretic asymptotic prediction. We locate the freezing transition in the space of solutions which has been conjectured to be relevant in explaining the onset of computational hardness i...
متن کاملClustering of solutions in the random satisfiability problem
Using elementary rigorous methods we prove the existence of a clustered phase in the random K-SAT problem, for K > or = 8. In this phase the solutions are grouped into clusters which are far away from each other. The results are in agreement with previous predictions of the cavity method and give a rigorous confirmation to one of its main building blocks. It can be generalized to other systems ...
متن کاملSolution Clustering in Random Satisfiability
For a large number of random constraint satisfaction problems, such as random k-SAT and random graph and hypergraph coloring, we have very good estimates of the largest constraint density for which solutions exist. All known polynomial-time algorithms for these problems, though, already fail to find solutions at much lower densities. To understand the origin of this gap we study how the structu...
متن کاملImproving WalkSAT for Random k-Satisfiability Problem with k > 3
Stochastic local search (SLS) algorithms are well known for their ability to efficiently find models of random instances of the Boolean satisfiablity (SAT) problem. One of the most famous SLS algorithms for SAT is WalkSAT, which is an initial algorithm that has wide influence among modern SLS algorithms. Recently, there has been increasing interest in WalkSAT, due to the discovery of its great ...
متن کاملSimplest random K-satisfiability problem
We study a simple and exactly solvable model for the generation of random satisfiability problems. These consist of gammaN random boolean constraints which are to be satisfied simultaneously by N logical variables. In statistical-mechanics language, the considered model can be seen as a diluted p-spin model at zero temperature. While such problems become extraordinarily hard to solve by local s...
