Bounded Depth Circuits with Weighted Symmetric Gates: Satisfiability, Lower Bounds and Compression

Authors: Takayuki Sakai, Kazuhisa Seto, Suguru Tamaki, and Junichi Teruyama

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 58, 41st International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2016)


Abstract
A Boolean function f:{0,1}^n -> {0,1} is weighted symmetric if there exist a function g: Z -> {0,1} and integers w_0, w_1, ..., w_n such that f(x_1, ...,x_n) = g(w_0+sum_{i=1}^n w_i x_i) holds. In this paper, we present algorithms for the circuit satisfiability problem of bounded depth circuits with AND, OR, NOT gates and a limited number of weighted symmetric gates. Our algorithms run in time super-polynomially faster than 2^n even when the number of gates is super-polynomial and the maximum weight of symmetric gates is nearly exponential. With an additional trick, we give an algorithm for the maximum satisfiability problem that runs in time poly(n^t)*2^{n-n^{1/O(t)}} for instances with n variables, O(n^t) clauses and arbitrary weights. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first moderately exponential time algorithm even for Max 2SAT instances with arbitrary weights. Through the analysis of our algorithms, we obtain average-case lower bounds and compression algorithms for such circuits and worst-case lower bounds for majority votes of such circuits, where all the lower bounds are against the generalized Andreev function. Our average-case lower bounds might be of independent interest in the sense that previous ones for similar circuits with arbitrary symmetric gates rely on communication complexity lower bounds while ours are based on the restriction method.

Improved Exact Algorithms for Mildly Sparse Instances of Max SAT

Authors: Takayuki Sakai, Kazuhisa Seto, Suguru Tamaki, and Junichi Teruyama

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 43, 10th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2015)


Abstract
We present improved exponential time exact algorithms for Max SAT. Our algorithms run in time of the form O(2^{(1-mu(c))n}) for instances with n variables and m=cn clauses. In this setting, there are three incomparable currently best algorithms: a deterministic exponential space algorithm with mu(c)=1/O(c * log(c)) due to Dantsin and Wolpert [SAT 2006], a randomized polynomial space algorithm with mu(c)=1/O(c * log^3(c)) and a deterministic polynomial space algorithm with mu(c)=1/O(c^2 * log^2(c)) due to Sakai, Seto and Tamaki [Theory Comput. Syst., 2015]. Our first result is a deterministic polynomial space algorithm with mu(c)=1/O(c * log(c)) that achieves the previous best time complexity without exponential space or randomization. Furthermore, this algorithm can handle instances with exponentially large weights and hard constraints. The previous algorithms and our deterministic polynomial space algorithm run super-polynomially faster than 2^n only if m=O(n^2). Our second results are deterministic exponential space algorithms for Max SAT with mu(c)=1/O((c * log(c))^{2/3}) and for Max 3-SAT with mu(c)=1/O(c^{1/2}) that run super-polynomially faster than 2^n when m=o(n^{5/2}/log^{5/2}(n)) and m=o(n^3/log^2(n)) respectively.
