Abstract: Linear logic is a resource-aware logic that is based on an analysis of the classical proof rules of contraction (copying) and weakening (throwing away). In this paper we study the decision problem for the multiplicative fragment of linear logic without quantifiers or propositions: the constant-only case. We show that this fragment is np-complete. Earlier work by Max Kanovich showed that propositional multiplicative linear logic is np-complete. With Natarajan Shankar, the first author developed... (Update)

.... that multiplicative linear logic is np complete [8] Lincoln and Winkler demonstrated np completeness of MLL using only the constants [13]. Lincoln and Scedrov had previously shown this fragment of linear logic to be nexptime hard [11] By extending this proof search paradigm,...
