英文摘要 | Viewing obdd from the explicit perspective of a propositional proof system is first proposed and studied in [a. atserias, p.g. kolaitis, m.y. vardi, constraint propagation as a proof system, in: cp, 2004, pp. 77-91]. it has been shown that obdd proof system defined in [a. atserias, p.g. kolaitis, m.y. vardi, constraint propagation as a proof system, in: cp, 2004, pp. 77-91] is strictly stronger than resolution and can polynomially simulate cutting plane proof system with small coefficients cp*. it is already shown in (w. cook, c.r. coullard, g. turan, on the complexity of cutting-plane proofs, discrete appl. math. 18 (11) (1987) 25-38] that there exists polynomial-size proof for pigeon hole problem php(n)(n+1) of cutting plane proof system. then it follows directly that there exists polynomial-size proof for php(n)(n+1) of obdd proof system. however, this is an indirect result. atserias et al. [a. atserias, p.g. kolaitis, m.y. vardi, constraint propagation as a proof system, in: cp, 2004, pp. 77-91] call for the need of a direct construction. hereby we present such construction. moreover, in this construction we do not need the weakening rule introduced in [a. atserias, p.g. kolaitis, m.y. vardi, constraint propagation as a proof system, in: cr 2004, pp. 77-91]. we believe this may shed some light on the understanding of the role of the weakening rule.
