Workshop on Algebra and CSPs
Description
The main goal of this workshop is to highlight the recent advances on the CSP Dichotomy Conjecture arising from the algebraic approach. It will focus on the various algebraic notions and results that have been developed in the attempts to resolve this conjecture and connected problems and will also include presentations on related algebraic topics, such as Maltsev Conditions and Tame Congruence Theory. The workshop may also include presentations on CSPs over infinite templates, quantified CSPs, and connections with logic, finite model theory, and complexity.
