  Abstract:
It is shown that the feasibly constructive arithmetic theory IPV does not prove (double negation of) LMIN(NP), unless the polynomial hierarchy CPV-provably collapses. It is proved that PV plus (double negation of) LMIN(NP)intuitionistically proves PIND(coNP). It is observed that PV+PIND(NP ∪ coNP) does not intuitionistically prove NPB, a scheme which sates that the extended Frege systems are not polynomially bounded.
