The Natural Proofs Barrier

In 1994, Razborov and Rudich showed that every known technique for proving circuit lower bounds shared a common structure that they called a natural proof. Further, they showed that natural proofs are fundamentally self-defeating against powerful circuit classes. If pseudorandom functions exist, no such natural proof can show that SAT requires superpolynomial circuits. The very hardness we wanted to prove thus was shielding the problem from our progress via the methods known at the time of their writing. Credits: "Natural Proofs" by A. A. Razborov and S.
