....way is to restrict the constraint language, or the types of constraints that are permitted in instances. This is the form of restriction which was studied by Schaefer in his now classic dichotomy theorem [27] and has seen intense investigation over the past decade in several different contexts [10]. In this paper, we study the complexity of the QCSP from the standpoint of restricting the constraint language. Our main contribution is the identification of three broad tractable subclasses of the QCSP. 1.1 Background In [27] Schaefer proved a dichotomy theorem on the complexity of CSP, ....
....satisfying assignment [26] inverse satisfiability [20] and finding a satisfying assignment maximizing the number of satisfied constraints [21] All of these dichotomy theorems are for constraint languages over a two element domain. Particularly relevant here is the dichotomy theorem for QCSP [10, 11] (also for two element domains) which shows that the only tractable subclasses in this context are QUANTIFIED 2 SAT [1] QUANTIFIED HORN SAT [8] and QUANTIFIED XOR SAT [10] reflecting exactly the nontrivial tractable subclasses of CSP given by Schaefer s theorem. All other constraint languages ....

....CNF clause (Xl x2 xk ) is equivalent to the PB con straint x x2 . xk 1. PB constraints are more expressive, however; a single PB constraint may in some cases correspond to an exponential number of CNF clauses. Common examples of 0 1 ILPs include Min COVER [9] Max SAT and Max ONEs [6]. In Min COVER, we have a collection of subsets of a given set and seek to find a cover of the set using the fewest number of subsets. Logic minimization of Boolean functions as well as state minimization of finite state machines are two important instances of this problem. In the Max SAT problem, ....

....is fixed. Informally speaking, each problem in this class is characterized by a finite collection of finitely specified constraint templates, say F. This class of problems, SAT(F) could be interpreted to be the combinatorial core of complexity and has already been thoroughly tested (see [CKS01] for a survey) as a testbed for abstracting global inferences about the nature of computation. Therefore this class might also provide some hints on the nature of phase transitions. In Section 2.1 we propose a general framework to make precise the universe set on which probability can be done, ....
