Abstract: Entailment of subtype constraints was introduced for constraint simplification
in subtype inference systems. Designing an efficient algorithm for subtype entailment
turned out to be surprisingly difficult. The situation was clarified by Rehof and Henglein
who proved entailment of structural subtype constraints to be coNP-complete for simple
types and PSPACE-complete for recursive types. For entailment of non-structural
subtype constraints of both simple and recursive types they proved... (Update)

.... years, the exact complexity and even the decidability of entailment is open for non structural subtyping constraints [3, 13, 14, 18, 19, 23, 28, 29, 34, 35, 37, 43]. As we show in Section 2, the natural versions of entailment and subtyping constrained types can be encoded...
...explain why finding a decision procedure for NSSE is so difficult. On the other hand, only a fragment of NSSE could be proved decidable [15] (and PSPACEcomplete) The idea behind the approach of this paper is to first reformulate Rehof and Henglein s approach for structural...
