Herbrand consistency search form of the TFNP conjecture
Herbrand consistency search form of the TFNP conjecture
Let be the class of theories under consideration. For a consistent universal sentence , let be its Herbrand Consistency Search problem: given finitely many tuples of terms, find a truth assignment to the relevant atomic subformulas making the corresponding instances of true. Herbrand consistency search TFNP conjecture. For every , there exists a consistent universal sentence such that is not polynomially reducible to any TFNP problem provably total in , equivalently . This is an equivalent Herbrand-search formulation of the TFNP conjecture.
