The Complexity of Homomorphism and Constraint Satisfaction Problems Seen from the Other Side
We give a complexity theoretic classification of homomorphism problems for graphs and, more generally, relational structures obtained by restricting the left hand side structure ...

Approximating Acyclicity Parameters of Sparse Hypergraphs
The notions of hypertree width and generalized hypertree width were introduced by Gottlob, Leone, and Scarcello in order to extend the concept of hypergraph acyclicity. These noti...

Generalized hypertree decompositions: np-hardness and tractable variants
The generalized hypertree width GHW(H) of a hypergraph H is a measure of its cyclicity. Classes of conjunctive queries or constraint satisfaction problems whose associated hypergr...

Approximate databases: a support tool for approximate reasoning
This paper describes an experimental platform for approximate knowledge databases called the Approximate Knowledge Database (AKDB), based on a semantics inspired by rough sets. The...

Content Search through Comparisons
We study the problem of navigating through a database of similar objects using comparisons. This problem is known to be strongly related to the small-world network design problem....
