Super-critical Trade-offs in Resolution over Parities Via Lifting

Razborov [J. ACM, 2016] exhibited the following surprisingly strong trade-off phenomenon in propositional proof complexity: for a parameter $k = k(n)$, there exists $k$-CNF formulas over $n$ variables, having resolution refutations of $O(k)$ width, but every tree-like refutation of width $n^{1-\epsilon}/k$ needs size $\text{exp}\big(n^{\Omega(k)}\big)$. We extend this result to tree-like ... more >>>
