Aggregation mechanisms for surjective classifications are nearly dictatorial with high probability unless functions are nearly constant, with a full characterization of always-surjective mechanisms.
Fourier analysis of Boolean functions yields two phenomena—preservation of coordinate influence under random 2-to-1 minors and sharp thresholds—that classify hardness and tractability for Boolean PCSP minions of unate or polynomial threshold functions, extending prior ordered-PCSP results.
Introduces strong sparsification for 1-in-3-SAT by merging variables, relying on a sub-quadratic vector-set bound derived from the Polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa Theorem, with an application to hypergraph coloring approximation.
The paper reformulates polymorphisms in CSPs and PCSPs as right Kan extensions and supplies purely categorical proofs that complexity is determined by these structures.
Establishes n^{1-ε}-hardness of approximation for dichromatic number and acyclic number on tournaments, plus polynomial-time approximations for ℓ-dicolorable digraphs and special dense cases.
