The complexity of promise SAT on non-Boolean domains
While 3-SAT is NP-hard, 2-SAT is solvable in polynomial time. Austrin, Guruswami, and Håstad [FOCS'14/SICOMP'17] proved a result known as "(2+ε)-SAT is NP-hard". They showed that the problem of distinguishing k-CNF formulas that are g-satisfiable (i.e. some assignment satisfies a...

description | While 3-SAT is NP-hard, 2-SAT is solvable in polynomial time. Austrin, Guruswami, and Håstad [FOCS'14/SICOMP'17] proved a result known as "(2+ε)-SAT is NP-hard". They showed that the problem of distinguishing k-CNF formulas that are g-satisfiable (i.e. some assignment satisfies at least g literals in every clause) from those that are not even 1-satisfiable is NP-hard if g/k < 1/2 and is in P otherwise. We study a generalisation of SAT on arbitrary finite domains, with clauses that are disjunctions of unary constraints, and establish analogous behaviour. Thus we give a dichotomy for a natural fragment of promise constraint satisfaction problems (PCSPs) on arbitrary finite domains. |
