First of all we give some reasons that "natural proofs" built not a barrier to prove P $\not=$ NP using Boolean complexity. Then we investigate the approximation method for its extension to prove super-polynomial lower bounds for the…

Given a graph G, we investigate the question of determining the parity of the number of homomorphisms from G to some other fixed graph H. We conjecture that this problem exhibits a complexity dichotomy, such that all parity graph…

Satisfiability of Boolean circuits is among the most known and important problems in theoretical computer science. This problem is NP-complete in general but becomes polynomial time when restricted either to monotone gates or linear gates.…

Constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) are a natural class of decision problems where one must decide whether there is an assignment to variables that satisfies a given formula. Schaefer's dichotomy theorem, and its extension to all…

The complexity of graph isomorphism (GraphIso) is a famous unresolved problem in theoretical computer science. For graphs $G$ and $H$, it asks whether they are the same up to a relabeling of vertices. In 1981, Lubiw proved that list…

The constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) involves deciding, given a set of variables and a set of constraints on the variables, whether or not there is an assignment to the variables satisfying all of the constraints. One formulation of…

We develop an analytical framework for Boolean Promise Constraint Satisfaction Problems (PCSPs) that studies polymorphisms through the notion of influence from Fourier analysis of Boolean functions. Extending the work of Brakensiek,…

The role of polymorphisms in determining the complexity of constraint satisfaction problems is well established. In this context we study the stability of CSP complexity and polymorphism properties under some basic graph theoretic…

Feder-Vardi conjecture, which proposed that every finite-domain Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) is either in P or it is NP-complete, has been solved independently by Bulatov and Zhuk almost ten years ago. Bodirsky-Pinsker conjecture…

A graph $G$ covers a graph $H$ if there exists a locally bijective homomorphism from $G$ to $H$. We deal with regular covers where this homomorphism is prescribed by the action of a semiregular subgroup of $\textrm{Aut}(G)$. We study…

Jaeger, Vertigan, and Welsh [15] proved a dichotomy for the complexity of evaluating the Tutte polynomial at fixed points: The evaluation is #P-hard almost everywhere, and the remaining points admit polynomial-time algorithms. Dell,…

We consider the problem of finding a homomorphism from an input digraph $G$ to a fixed digraph $H$. We show that if $H$ admits a weak-near-unanimity polymorphism $\phi$ then deciding whether $G$ admits a homomorphism to $H$ (HOM($H$)) is…

It is confirmed in this work that the graph isomorphism can be tested in polynomial time, which resolves a longstanding problem in the theory of computation. The contributions are in three phases as follows. 1. A description graph…

We propose an approach for decomposing Boolean satisfiability problems while extending recent results of \cite{sul2} on solving Boolean systems of equations. Developments in \cite{sul2} were aimed at the expansion of functions $f$ in…

For every integer $g$, isomorphism of graphs of Euler genus at most $g$ can be decided in linear time. This improves previously known algorithms whose time complexity is $n^{O(g)}$ (shown in early 1980's), and in fact, this is the first…
