The path to the solution of Feder-Vardi dichotomy conjecture by Bulatov and Zhuk led through showing that more and more general algebraic conditions imply polynomial-time algorithms for the finite-domain Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs) whose templates satisfy them. These investigations resulted in the discovery of the appropriate height 1 Maltsev conditions characterizing bounded strict width, bounded width, the applicability of the few-subpowers algorithm, and many others. For problems in the range of the similar Bodirsky-Pinsker conjecture on infinite-domain CSPs, one can only find such a characterization for the notion of bounded strict width, with a proof essentially the same as in the finite case. In this paper, we provide the first non-trivial results showing that certain height 1 Maltsev conditions imply bounded width, and in consequence tractability, for a natural subclass of templates within the Bodirsky-Pinsker conjecture which includes many templates in the literature as well as templates for which no complexity classification is known.

  1. Constraint Satisfaction Problems over Finitely Bounded Homogeneous Structures: a Dichotomy between FO and L-hard

    cs.CC 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 8.0 of 10

    CSPs over FO expansions of finitely bounded homogeneous model-complete cores are either FO-definable (in non-uniform AC0) or L-hard under FO reductions.
