摘要: We establish the first polynomial time-space lower bounds for satisfiability on general models of computation. show that any constant c less than golden ratio there exists a positive d such no deterministic random-access Turing machine can solve in time nc and space nd, where approaches 1 when does. On conondeterministic instead machines, we prove same √2.Our apply to nondeterministic linear almost all natural NP-complete problems known. In fact, they even class languages be solved n1/c.Our proofs follow paradigm indirect diagonalization. also use higher up polynomial-time hierarchy.
