SAT circuit oracles from NP ⊆ P/poly #
This module extracts the exact polynomial-size SAT circuit family needed to replace SAT-oracle calls in a nonuniform computation. Fixed-round adaptive programs may have a different positive query width at each round; the selected family members inline every call into one ordinary circuit.
If every language in NP has polynomial-size circuits, then SAT has a
packaged polynomial-size circuit oracle.
Under NP ⊆ PPoly, every fixed-round adaptive SAT-oracle circuit program
has a polynomial circuit oracle whose width-selected family members inline to
an ordinary circuit with exactly the same output.
This theorem performs circuit-level oracle replacement. It does not assert
that an arbitrary oracle Turing machine has already been compiled into an
AdaptiveOracleProgram.
