    Abstract

    The general intractability of the constraint satisfaction problem has motivated the study of restrictions on this problem that permit polynomial-time solvability. One major line of work has focused on structural restrictions, which arise from restricting the interaction among constraint scopes. In this paper, we engage in a mathematical investigation of generalized hypertree width, a structural measure that has up to recently eluded study. We obtain a number of computational results, including a simple proof of the tractability of CSP instances having bounded generalized hypertree width.
