Improved algorithms for 3-coloring, 3-edge-coloring, and constraint satisfaction
We consider worst case time bounds for NP-complete problems including 3-SAT, 3-coloring, 3-edge-coloring, and 3list-coloring. Our algorithms are based on a constraint satisfaction...

On the Conversion between Non-Binary and Binary Constraint Satisfaction Problems
It is well known that any non-binary discrete constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) can be translated into an equivalent binary CSP. Two translations are known: the dual graph tra...
