Abstract
The recent connection between the concept of indistinguishability by the properties expressible in a certain formal language and a relaxation of structural isomorphism through linear programming brings the areas of descriptive complexity and propositional proof complexity a little bit closer together. In this talk I will overview this connection making emphasis on the questions it has answered, but also on the many new exciting questions that it raises.
