Abstract

For all k ≥ 3, we prove essentially optimal lower bounds for the size and degree required for the polynomial calculus proof system to refute the k-colorability of a sparse graph sampled either from the Erdős–Rényi distribution or the uniform distribution over regular graphs. Our results hold for both the Boolean encoding and the so-called roots-of-unity encoding of k-colorability.
