The first seven chapters include the necessary logical background for the material and are suitable for a graduate course. Associated with each of many complexity classes are both a two-sorted predicate calculus theory, with induction restricted to concepts in the class, and a propositional proof system. The complexity classes range from AC0 for the weakest theory up to the polynomial hierarchy. Each bounded theorem in a theory translates into a family of (quantified) propositional tautologies with polynomial size proofs in the corresponding proof system. The theory proves the soundness of the associated proof system. The result is a uniform treatment of many systems in the literature, including Buss's theories for the polynomial hierarchy and many disparate systems for complexity classes such as AC0, AC0(m), TC0, NC1, L, NL, NC, and P.Perspectives in logic.Computational complexityProof theoryLogic, Symbolic and mathematicalComputational complexity.Proof theory.Logic, Symbolic and mathematical.511.3/6Cook Stephen1948-1048150Nguyen Phuong1977-UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910456558303321Logical foundations of proof complexity2476199UNINA
