Query: Rare Speed-up in Automatic Theorem Proving Reveals Tradeoff Between
  Computational Time and Information Value   We show that strategies implemented in automatic theorem proving involve an
interesting tradeoff between execution speed, proving speedup/computational
time and usefulness of information. We advance formal definitions for these
concepts by way of a notion of normality related to an expected (optimal)
theoretical speedup when adding useful information (other theorems as axioms),
as compared with actual strategies that can be effectively and efficiently
implemented. We propose the existence of an ineluctable tradeoff between this
normality and computational time complexity. The argument quantifies the
usefulness of information in terms of (positive) speed-up. The results disclose
a kind of no-free-lunch scenario and a tradeoff of a fundamental nature. The
main theorem in this paper together with the numerical experiment---undertaken
using two different automatic theorem provers AProS and Prover9 on random
theorems of propositional logic---provide strong theoretical and empirical
arguments for the fact that finding new useful information for solving a
specific problem (theorem) is, in general, as hard as the problem (theorem)
itself.
