The mighty tuple II conjecture for quantified constraint satisfaction

Let AA be a finite domain, let Γ\Gamma be a constraint language on AA, and let \QCSP(Γ)\QCSP(\Gamma) denote the quantified constraint satisfaction problem for Γ\Gamma. A mighty tuple II is the structural configuration defined in the paper, and a constraint language q-defines such a tuple when it can define it by quantified primitive-positive formulas. Mighty tuple II conjecture. \QCSP(Γ)\QCSP(\Gamma) is PSpace-complete if and only if Γ\Gamma q-defines a mighty tuple II. The paper establishes related implications among mighty tuples and proves classifications in some restricted settings, but the converse implication from a mighty tuple I to a mighty tuple II is not known in general; this conjecture proposes the corresponding PSpace-completeness dichotomy.
