The tractability conjecture for reducts of finitely bounded homogeneous structures
The tractability conjecture for reducts of finitely bounded homogeneous structures
Let be a reduct of a finitely bounded homogeneous structure: it is obtained by forgetting some relations from a homogeneous structure, and the ambient structure is characterized among finite structures by forbidding embeddings of a finite set of finite structures. Let denote the complete graph on three vertices, and let be the problem of deciding whether a finite input structure admits a homomorphism to .
The tractability conjecture. If does not pp-construct , then is polynomial-time solvable.
This is described as a wide-open generalization of the Feder–Vardi conjecture to reducts of finitely bounded homogeneous structures and is the subject of an active research program.
