Symmetry Breaking as a Prelude to Implied Constraints: A Constraint Modelling Pattern
Finite-domain constraint programming can be used to solve a wide range of problems by first modelling the problem as a set of constraints that characterise the problem’s solutio...

Robust Solutions for Constraint Satisfaction and Optimization
Super solutions are a mechanism to provide robustness to constraint programs [10]. They are solutions in which, if a small number of variables lose their values, we are guaranteed ...

Static and Dynamic Structural Symmetry Breaking
We reconsider the idea of structural symmetry breaking (SSB) for constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs). We show that the dynamic dominance checks used in symmetry breaking by dom...

Groupoids and Conditional Symmetry
We introduce groupoids – generalisations of groups in which not all pairs of elements may be multiplied, or, equivalently, categories in which all morphisms are invertible – as...

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...
