We use existential Diophantine predicates carefully reinterpreted over the reals and the time complexity of Tarski algebra to show that 3-CNF SAT is in n^O(log^{gamma} n) time for an absolute positive constant gamma.
In this paper, some issues concerning the Chinese remaindering representation are discussed. Some new converting methods, including an efficient probabilistic algorithm based on a recent result of von zur Gathen and Shparlinski \cite{Gathen-Shparlinski}, are described. An efficient refinement of the NC$^1$ division algorithm of Chiu, Davida and Litow \cite{Chiu-Davida-Litow} is given, where the number of moduli is reduced by a factor of $\log n$.
