Logical compactness and constraint satisfaction problems [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2017
We investigate a correspondence between the complexity hierarchy of constraint satisfaction problems and a hierarchy of logical compactness hypotheses for finite relational structures.

Dualities for Constraint Satisfaction Problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In a nutshell, a duality for a constraint satisfaction problem equates the existence of one homomorphism to the non-existence of other homomorphisms. In this survey paper, we give an overview of logical, combinatorial, and algebraic aspects of the following forms of duality for constraint satisfaction problems: finite duality, bounded pathwidth duality,

Random Constraint Satisfaction Problems [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2009
Random instances of constraint satisfaction problems such as k-SAT provide challenging benchmarks. If there are m constraints over n variables there is typically a large range of densities r=m/n where solutions are known to exist with probability close ...

The Complexity of Combinations of Qualitative Constraint Satisfaction Problems [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2020
The CSP of a first-order theory $T$ is the problem of deciding for a given finite set $S$ of atomic formulas whether $T \cup S$ is satisfiable. Let $T_1$ and $T_2$ be two theories with countably infinite models and disjoint signatures.

Applying quantum algorithms to constraint satisfaction problems [PDF]

open access: yesQuantum, 2019
Quantum algorithms can deliver asymptotic speedups over their classical counterparts. However, there are few cases where a substantial quantum speedup has been worked out in detail for reasonably-sized problems, when compared with the best classical ...

A Characterisation of First-Order Constraint Satisfaction Problems [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2007
We describe simple algebraic and combinatorial characterisations of finite relational core structures admitting finitely many obstructions. As a consequence, we show that it is decidable to determine whether a constraint satisfaction problem is first ...

Linear Phase Transition in Random Linear Constraint Satisfaction Problems [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2003
Our model is a generalized linear programming relaxation of a much studied random K-SAT problem. Specifically, a set of linear constraints $C$ on $K$ variables is fixed.

Graph Neural Networks for Maximum Constraint Satisfaction

open access: yesFrontiers in Artificial Intelligence, 2021
Many combinatorial optimization problems can be phrased in the language of constraint satisfaction problems. We introduce a graph neural network architecture for solving such optimization problems.

The complexity of global cardinality constraints [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2010
In a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) the goal is to find an assignment of a given set of variables subject to specified constraints. A global cardinality constraint is an additional requirement that prescribes how many variables must be assigned a ...
