We examine some flexible notions of constraint satisfaction, observing some relationships between model theoretic notions of universal Horn class membership and robust satisfiability. We show the \texttt{NP}-completeness of $2$-robust…

We study Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs) in an infinite context. We show that the dichotomy between easy and hard problems -- established already in the finite case -- presents itself as the strength of the corresponding De…

Let $A$ be a residually finite dimensional algebra (not necessarily associative) over a field $k$. Suppose first that $k$ is algebraically closed. We show that if $A$ satisfies a homogeneous almost identity $Q$, then $A$ has an ideal of…

A ternary permutation constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is specified by a subset Pi of the symmetric group S_3. An instance of such a problem consists of a set of variables V and a set of constraints C, where each constraint is an…

What sets A \subset Z^n can be written in the form (K-K) \cap Z^n, where K is a compact subset of R^n such that K+Z^n=R^n? Such sets A are called achievable, and it is known that if A is achievable, then < A >=Z^n. This condition completely…

We discuss Poisson structures on a weighted polynomial algebra $A:=\Bbbk[x, y, z]$ defined by a homogeneous element $\Omega\in A$, called a potential. We start with classifying potentials $\Omega$ of degree deg$(x)+$deg$(y)+$deg$(z)$ with…

Although an important issue in canonical quantization, the problem of representing the constraint algebra in the loop representation of quantum gravity has received little attention. The only explicit computation was performed by Gambini,…

Many fundamental problems in artificial intelligence, knowledge representation, and verification involve reasoning about sets and relations between sets and can be modeled as set constraint satisfaction problems (set CSPs). Such problems…

In the recently emerging field of nonabelian group-based cryptography, a prominently used one-way function is the Conjugacy Search Problem (CSP), and two important classes of platform groups are polycyclic and matrix groups. In this paper,…

Let $\mathbf{A}$ be a finite nilpotent algebra in a congruence modular variety with finitely many fundamental operations. If $\mathbf{A}$ is of prime power order, then it is known that there is a polynomial $p$ such that for every $n \in…

Every CSP(B) for a finite structure B is either in P or it is NP-complete but the proofs of the finite-domain CSP dichotomy by Andrei Bulatov and Dimitryi Zhuk not only show the computational complexity separation but also confirm the…

We construct uncountably categorical 3-nilpotent groups of exponent p > 3. They are not one-based and do not allow the interpretation of an infinite field. Therefore they are counterexamples to Zilbers Conjecture. First 2-nilpotent new…
