  • Abstract
    We develop an arithmetical theory VNC ∗ 1 and its variant VNC ¯ ∗ 1 , corresponding to “slightly nonuniform” NC 1 . Our theories sit between VNC 1 and VL , and allow evaluation of log-depth bounded fan-in circuits under limited conditions. Propositional translations of Σ 0 B ( L VNC ¯ ∗ 1 ) -formulas provable in VNC ¯ ∗ 1 admit L -uniform polynomial-size Frege proofs.
