Constraint repair through SAT

Read the equation

A SAT solver seeks an assignment satisfying a Boolean formula. Finding the closest satisfying assignment requires an additional optimization objective, such as minimizing bit changes. The source’s minimal-repair label therefore describes an optimization problem beyond ordinary satisfiability.

Terms & definitions

The recovered passage does not supply a separate symbol table. Read the source context for the notation used in this version; familiar letters may carry different meanings in other builds.

How it works

1. Read C_logic as the quantity being defined or updated by this relation.

2. Substitute the source-defined variables or recorded values and follow the displayed arithmetic and indexing exactly.

3. Use this version’s variable definitions and update order. The same symbol may be assigned a different meaning in another build.

Assumptions & limits

Source recovery establishes that the expression appears in this record. Its mathematical validity, implementation behavior, and interpretation must be assessed separately. See the linked source and research notes for the checks available for this version.

Original context

C_dist   = parallel AND/OR (majority)
C_pair   = XNOR or AND/OR per bit
C_helix  = shift register with period T
C_layer  = lookup table or Boolean net
C_logic  = SAT solver (minimal bit repair)
```

**Gate count estimate:**

|Operator|Gates (n=64 bits)|

C_logic  = SAT solver (minimal bit repair)
