The Inverse Satisfiability Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the complexity of telling whether a set of bit-vectors represents the set of all satisfying truth assignments of a Boolean expression of a certain type. We show that the problem is coNP-complete when the expression is required to be in conjunctive normal form with three literals per clause (3CNF). We also prove a dichotomy theorem analogous to the classical one by Schaefer, stating that, unless P=NP, the problem can be solved in polynomial time if and only if the clauses allowed are all Horn, or all anti-Horn, or all 2CNF, or all equivalent to equations modulo two.

Cut-Free ExpTime Tableaux for Checking Satisfiability of a Knowledge Base in the Description Logic SHI
We give the first cut-free ExpTime (optimal) tableau decision procedure for checking satisfiability of a knowledge base in the description logic SHI, which extends the description logic ALC with transitive roles, inverse roles and role hierarchies.
متن کاملOn the inverse maximum perfect matching problem under the bottleneck-type Hamming distance
Given an undirected network G(V,A,c) and a perfect matching M of G, the inverse maximum perfect matching problem consists of modifying minimally the elements of c so that M becomes a maximum perfect matching with respect to the modified vector. In this article, we consider the inverse problem when the modifications are measured by the weighted bottleneck-type Hamming distance. We propose an alg...
متن کاملCapacity Inverse Minimum Cost Flow Problem under the Weighted Hamming Distances
Given an instance of the minimum cost flow problem, a version of the corresponding inverse problem, called the capacity inverse problem, is to modify the upper and lower bounds on arc flows as little as possible so that a given feasible flow becomes optimal to the modified minimum cost flow problem. The modifications can be measured by different distances. In this article, we consider the capac...
متن کاملAutomatically finding particular term rewriting systems
Our goal is to give a list of rewriting properties, and then automatically find a term rewriting system (TRS) satisfying these properties. In earlier work we did this for finite abstract reduction systems; in this paper we extend the approach to ground term rewriting systems over constants and one unary symbol. In particular, we fully automatically find a TRS that is locally confluent but not c...
متن کاملA Uniqueness Theorem of the Solution of an Inverse Spectral Problem
This paper is devoted to the proof of the unique solvability ofthe inverse problems for second-order differential operators withregular singularities. It is shown that the potential functioncan be determined from spectral data, also we prove a uniquenesstheorem in the inverse problem.
