"textContent": "**Authors:** Samuel González-Castillo, Joon Hyung Lee, Alfons Laarman\n\nWe study PRODSAT-QSAT($k$): given rank-one $k$-local projectors, determine whether a quantum $k$-SAT instance admits a satisfying product state. We present a CDCL-style refutation framework that searches a finite partition of each qubit's Bloch sphere while a sound theory solver checks region feasibility using a geometric overapproximation of the projection amplitudes for each constraint. When the theory solver proves that no state in a region can satisfy a constraint, it produces a sound conflict clause that blocks that region; accumulated blocking clauses can yield a global result of product-state unsatisfiability (UN-PRODSAT). We formalise the problem, prove the soundness of the clause-learning rule, and describe a practical algorithm and implementation.",
