However, chronological backtracking is more difficult to maintain due to its weaker SAT solving invariants. This paper introduces a lazy reimplication procedure for missed lower implications in chronological backtracking. Our method saves propagations by reimplying literals on demand, rather than eagerly. Due to its modularity, our work can be replicated in other solvers, as shown by our results in the solvers CaDiCaL and Glucose.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.07457v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2501.07457v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"lazy-reimplication-in-chronological","repo_url":"https://github.com/robcoutel/napsat","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
