CSPs and Connectedness: P/NP Dichotomy for Idempotent, Right Quasigroups
In the 1990's, Jeavons showed that every finite algebra corresponds to a class of constraint satisfaction problems. Vardi later conjectured that idempotent algebras exhibit P/NP dichotomy: Every non NP-complete algebra in this class must be tractable. Here we discuss how tractability corresponds to connectivity in Cayley graphs. In particular, we show that dichotomy in finite idempotent, right quasi groups follows from a very strong notion of connectivity. Moreover, P/NP membership is first-order axiomatizable in involutory quandles.
