The Complexity of Resilience for Digraph Queries

Authors: Manuel Bodirsky and Žaneta Semanišinová

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)

Abstract
We prove a complexity dichotomy for the resilience problem for unions of conjunctive digraph queries (i.e., for existential positive sentences over the signature {R} of directed graphs). Specifically, for every union μ of conjunctive digraph queries, the following problem is in P or NP-complete: given a directed multigraph G and a natural number u, can we remove u edges from G so that G ⊧ ¬ μ? In fact, we verify a more general dichotomy conjecture from [Bodirsky et al., 2024] for all resilience problems in the special case of directed graphs, and show that for such unions of queries μ there exists a countably infinite (`dual') valued structure Δ_μ which either primitively positively constructs 1-in-3-3-SAT, and hence the resilience problem for μ is NP-complete by general principles, or has a pseudo cyclic canonical fractional polymorphism, and the resilience problem for μ is in P.

Temporal Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problems

Authors: Manuel Bodirsky, Édouard Bonnet, and Žaneta Semanišinová

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 345, 50th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2025)

Abstract
We study the computational complexity of the valued constraint satisfaction problem (VCSP) for every valued structure over ℚ that is preserved by all order-preserving bijections. Such VCSPs will be called temporal, in analogy to the (classical) constraint satisfaction problem: a relational structure is preserved by all order-preserving bijections if and only if all its relations have a first-order definition in (ℚ; <), and the CSPs for such structures are called temporal CSPs. Many optimization problems that have been studied intensively in the literature can be phrased as a temporal VCSP. We prove that a temporal VCSP is in P, or NP-complete. Our analysis uses the concept of fractional polymorphisms. This is the first dichotomy result for VCSPs over infinite domains which is complete in the sense that it treats all valued structures that contain a given automorphism group.

The Complexity of Boolean Surjective General-Valued CSPs

Authors: Peter Fulla and Stanislav Zivny

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 83, 42nd International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2017)

Abstract
Valued constraint satisfaction problems (VCSPs) are discrete optimisation problems with the objective function given as a sum of fixed-arity functions; the values are rational numbers or infinity. In Boolean surjective VCSPs variables take on labels from D={0,1} and an optimal assignment is required to use both labels from D. A classic example is the global min-cut problem in graphs. Building on the work of Uppman, we establish a dichotomy theorem and thus give a complete complexity classification of Boolean surjective VCSPs. The newly discovered tractable case has an interesting structure related to projections of downsets and upsets. Our work generalises the dichotomy for {0,infinity}-valued constraint languages corresponding to CSPs) obtained by Creignou and Hebrard, and the dichotomy for {0,1}-valued constraint languages (corresponding to Min-CSPs) obtained by Uppman.

On Planar Valued CSPs

Authors: Peter Fulla and Stanislav Zivny

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 58, 41st International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2016)

Abstract
We study the computational complexity of planar valued constraint satisfaction problems (VCSPs). First, we show that intractable Boolean VCSPs have to be self-complementary to be tractable in the planar setting, thus extending a corresponding result of Dvorak and Kupec [ICALP'15] from CSPs to VCSPs. Second, we give a complete complexity classification of conservative planar VCSPs on arbitrary finite domains. As it turns out, in this case planarity does not lead to any new tractable cases, and thus our classification is a sharpening of the classification of conservative VCSPs by Kolmogorov and Zivny [JACM'13].
