The use of Nepomnjaščiǐ’s Theorem in the proofs of independence results
for bounded arithmetic theories is investigated. Using this result and similar ideas,
it is shown that at least one of S1 or TLS does not prove the
Matiyasevich-Robinson-Davis-Putnam Theorem. It is also established that TLS does not prove a statement
that roughly means nondeterministic linear time is equal to co-nondeterministic linear
time. Here S1 is a conservative extension of the well-studied theory IΔ
and TLS is a theory for LOGSPACE reasoning.
