Planted-solution SAT and Ising benchmarks from integer factorization
Not on the map. Why?
Abstract (arXiv)
We present a family of planted-solution benchmark instances for satisfiability (SAT) solvers and Ising optimization derived from integer factorization. Given two primes p and q, the construction encodes the arithmetic constraints of N = p × q as a conjunctive normal form (CNF) formula whose satisfying assignments correspond to valid factorizations of~N. The known pair (p,q) serves as a built-in ground truth, enabling unambiguous verification of solver output. We show that for two d-bit primes the total number of carry contractions is on the order of d4. Empirical benchmarks with SAT solvers show that median runtime grows exponentially in the bit-length of the factors over the range tested. The construction provides a scalable, structured, and verifiable benchmark family controlled by a single parameter, accompanied by open-source generation software.
