Constraint Satisfaction Problems - Lecture 20b of CS Theory Toolkit

Explore Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs) in this graduate-level lecture from Carnegie Mellon University's "CS Theory Toolkit" course. Delve into formal definitions, the Dichotomy Conjecture (now Theorem), and its significance in theoretical computer science. Learn about CSP examples, algorithms, and satisfiability. Gain insights from additional resources on CSP approximability and polymorphisms. Taught by Ryan O'Donnell, this 32-minute video offers a comprehensive look at fundamental concepts essential for research in theoretical computer science.
