First-Order Model Checking Problems Parameterized by the Model
We study the complexity of the model checking problem, for fixed models A, over certain fragments L of first-order logic, obtained by restricting which of the quantifiers and boole...

Tight Bounds on the Approximability of Almost-satisfiable Horn SAT and Exact Hitting Set}
We study the approximability of two natural Boolean constraint satisfaction problems: Horn satisfiability and exact hitting set. Under the Unique Games conjecture, we prove the fo...

Constraint-Based Combinators for Local Search
Abstract. One of the most appealing features of constraint programming is its rich constraint language for expressing combinatorial optimization problems. This paper demonstrates t...

Bounds-Consistent Local Search
This paper describes a hybrid approach to solving large-scale constraint satisfaction and optimization problems. It describes a hybrid algorithm for integer linear programming whic...

Decomposable Constraints
Many constraint satisfaction problems can be naturally and efficiently modelled using non-binary constraints like the “all-different” and “global cardinality” constraints...
