A Dichotomy for 2-Constraint Forbidden CSP Patterns
Novel tractable classes of the binary CSP (constraint satisfaction problem) have recently been discovered by studying classes of instances defined by excluding subproblems descri...

Caterpillar Duality for Constraint Satisfaction Problems
The study of constraint satisfaction problems definable in various fragments of Datalog has recently gained considerable importance. We consider constraint satisfaction problems ...

A unified theory of structural tractability for constraint satisfaction problems
In this paper we derive a generic form of structural decomposition for the constraint satisfaction problem, which we call a guarded decomposition. We show that many existing decom...

CSP duality and trees of bounded pathwidth
We study non-uniform constraint satisfaction problems definable in monadic Datalog stratified by the use of non-linearity. We show how such problems can be described in terms of...

Amalgams of Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Many of standard practical techniques of solving constraint satisfaction problems use various decomposition methods to represent a problem as a combination of smaller ones. We stu...
