Constraint Satisfaction Problems over Numeric Domains
Abstract
We present a survey of complexity results for constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) over the integers, the rationals, the reals, and the complex numbers. Examples of such problems are feasibility of linear programs, integer linear programming, the max-atoms problem, Hilbert's tenth problem, and many more. Our particular focus is to identify those CSPs that can be solved in polynomial time, and to distinguish them from CSPs that are NP-hard. A very helpful tool for obtaining complexity classifications in this context is the concept of a polymorphism from universal algebra.
