    Natural Language Statement

    Theorem

    CVP is PTIME-complete under first-order reductions, a theorem of Ladner. It is FO(LFP) definable, by the rule system that transcribes the gate rules, hence in PTIME by the Immerman–Vardi theorem. Hardness draws the unit-propagation circuit of a Horn formula; the reduction is applied to the complement of a problem and complemented back, PTIME being closed under complement.
