Description

Given an instance of exclusive-or 2-satisfiability and a positive integer K, the problem maximum exclusive-or 2-satisfiability consists in deciding whether this Boolean formula has a truth assignment with at leat K satisfiable clauses. We prove that maximum exclusive-or 2-satisfiability is in QP. Moreover, we demonstrate this problem is NP-complete. In this way, we show QP contains NP.
