Many thanks for all answers.

My aim was to understand examples and their proofs of "not in P"
problems.
I buyed the book of papadimitriou and have read some other books about
complexity theory
(such as Sipser). But still don't know a single proof example of "not
in P" -_-.

My remaining questions are

1. Is there a simple example of "not in P" proof in any problem?
   (I know Razborov's restricted arguments on circuit complexity)

2. Exp-complete means automatically "not in P" by time hierachy
theorem?

3. Could you explain what are the CVAL and succinct CVAL problems?
