We study the complexity of the parameterised counting constraint satisfaction problem: given a set of constraints over a set of variables and a positive integer $k$, how many ways are there to assign $k$ variables to 1 (and the others to 0)…

For Boolean satisfiability problems, the structure of the solution space is characterized by the solution graph, where the vertices are the solutions, and two solutions are connected iff they differ in exactly one variable. In 2006, Gopalan…

We study the complexity of local search for the Boolean constraint satisfaction problem (CSP), in the following form: given a CSP instance, that is, a collection of constraints, and a solution to it, the question is whether there is a…
