"Graphs, posets, polymorphisms, and the Constraint Satisfaction Problem Dichotomy Conjecture, Part II"

This is a continuation of last week's seminar. I will have
identify each of the main Maltsev conditions relevant to CSP and some
secondary ones, characterize each main Maltsev condition by a class of
structures which it forbids to be pp-interpretable, and state the
conjectures connecting each main Maltsev condition to a computational
complexity class.
