Exponential Gaps Between Intuitionistic Linear Extended Frege Systems

Abstract

In this paper, we establish exponential separations between Extended Frege systems for a range of intuitionistic substructural and linear logics. More precisely, for any logic L below the intuitionistic logic obtained by extending ILL with structural rules, and any logic M not contained in L, we construct a family of FLe-provable formulas that have short proofs in M-Frege but require proofs of exponential size in L-Extended Frege. The same result holds in the !-free settings, using IMALL and FLe in place of ILL. The key ingredient in proving these separations is a variant of the feasible disjunction property for L-Frege, which may be of independent interest.

AB  - In this paper, we establish exponential separations between Extended Frege systems for a range of intuitionistic substructural and linear logics. More precisely, for any logic L below the intuitionistic logic obtained by extending ILL with structural rules, and any logic M not contained in L, we construct a family of FL_e-provable formulas that have short proofs in M-Frege but require proofs of exponential size in L-Extended Frege. The same result holds in the !-free settings, using IMALL and FL_e in place of ILL. The key ingredient in proving these separations is a variant of the feasible disjunction property for L-Frege, which may be of independent interest.
