The complexity of soft constraint satisfaction
Over the past few years there has been considerable progress in methods to systematically analyse the complexity of constraint satisfaction problems with specified constraint type...

Dualities in full homomorphisms
Abstract. In this paper we study dualities of graphs and, more generally, relational structures with respect to full homomorphisms, that is, mappings that are both edge- and non-ed...

Branching Rules for Satisfiability Analysed with Factor Analysis
Factor analysis is a statistical technique for reducing the number of factors responsible for a matrix of correlations to a smaller number of factors that may reflect underlying va...

Generalizing Global Constraints Based on Network Flows
Global constraints are used in constraint programming to help users specify patterns that occur frequently in the real world. In addition, global constraints facilitate the use of ...

The complexity of positive first-order logic without equality
We study the complexity of evaluating positive equality-free sentences of first-order (FO) logic over a fixed, finite structure B. This may be seen as a natural generalisation of ...
