Evaluation-Based Semiring Meta-constraints
Abstract. Classical constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) provide an expressive formalism for describing and solving many real-world problems. However, classical CSPs prove to be...

Compositional Derivation of Symmetries for Constraint Satisfaction
This paper reconsiders the problems of discovering symmetries in constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs). It proposes a compositional approach which derives symmetries of the appli...

A Dichotomy Theorem for the General Minimum Cost Homomorphism Problem
Abstract. In the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP), the aim is to find an assignment of values to a set of variables subject to specified constraints. In the minimum cost hom...
