Complexity of Clausal Constraints Over Chains
We investigate the complexity of the satisfiability problem of constraints over finite totally ordered domains. In our context, a clausal constraint is a disjunction of inequaliti...

Tree-width and functional dependencies in databases
Conjunctive query (CQ) evaluation on relational databases is NP-complete in general. Several restrictions, like bounded tree-width and bounded hypertree-width, allow polynomial ti...

Perfect Sorting by Reversals
In computational biology, gene order data is often modelled as signed permutations. A classical problem in genome comparison is to detect conserved segments in a permutation, that ...
