Abstract: We show that non-deterministic time NT IME(n) is not contained in deterministic time n 2-# and poly-logarithmic space, for any # > 0. This implies that (infinitely often) satisfiability cannot be solved in time O(n 2-# ) and polylogarithmic space. A similar result is presented for uniform circuits. 1 Introduction Recently Fortnow [7] proved the first non-trivial timespace trade-off for satisfiability. His main result was that SAT is not computable in non-deterministic time n 1+o(1) and... (Update)

.... has received a renewed deal of attention recently in the context of time space trade off lower bounds for the satisfiability problem [6, 14, 7]. The new bounds on the Weak Pigeonhole Principle that we obtain have some consequences for Feasible Number Theory whose aim is to...

...SAT cannot be solved in quasilinear time and space O(n 1 ) on a deterministic Turing machine, for any 0. Recently, Lipton and Viglas [9], using techniques of Kannan [7] have improved the tradeo s in [4] For example, they show that SAT cannot be accepted by a TM that...
