On binary constraints defined by vanishing of bivariate polynomials modulo $n$ [duplicate]
In an answer here
Dima Pasechnik showed that constraints of the form $x_i x_j + a_{ij}x_i + b_{ij}x_j + c_{ij}$ are efficiently solvable modulo $2$ using Groebner basis.
In comments he suggested that ...

SAT and Arithmetic Geometry
This is an agglomeration of several questions, linked by a single observation: SAT is equivalent to determining the existence of roots for a system of polynomial equations over $\mathbb{F}_2$ (note ...

Efficiency of Groebner basis for constraints of the form $(a_i x_i+b_i)(a_j x_j+b_j)$
This is based on numerical experiments in sage.
Let $K$ be a ring and define the ideal where each polynomial
is of the form $(a_i x_i+b_i)(a_j x_j+b_j)$ for constant $a_i,b_i,a_j,b_j$.
Q1 Is it true ...

Reduction maximum independent set to MIS in a very dense graph
We got a reduction maximum independent set to MIS in a very dense graph,
or alternatively negative monotone 2-CNF to MAX-ONEs with a formula
with many clauses.
Let $G$ be graph of order $n$ and ...
