Propositional Satisfiability (SAT) solvers are routinely used for
solving many function problems.
A natural question that has seldom been addressed is: what is the
best worst-case number of calls to a SAT solver for solving some
target function problem?
This paper develops tighter upper bounds on the query complexity of

Over the years, proof systems for propositional satisfiability (SAT)
have been extensively studied. Recently, proof systems for
quantified Boolean formulas (QBFs) have also been gaining attention.
Q-resolution is a calculus enabling producing proofs from
DPLL-based QBF solvers. While DPLL has become a dominating technique
for SAT, QBF has been tackled ...
