  • Abstract
    We study certain constraint satisfaction problems which are the problems of deciding whether there exists a homomorphism from a given relational structure to a fixed structure with a majority polymorphism. We show that such a problem is equivalent to deciding whether the given structure admits a homomorphism from an obstruction belonging to a certain class of structures of bounded pathwidth. This implies that the constraint satisfaction problem for any fixed structure with a majority polymorphism is in NL.
