Given two $m$-ary predicates $P,Q$, an $n$-ary polymorphism is a tuple $(f_1,\dots,f_m)$ of functions such that $x^{(1)},\dots,x^{(n)} \in P$ implies $(f_1(y_1),\dots,f_m(y_m)) \in Q$, where $y_i = (x^{(1)}_i,\dots,x^{(m)}_i)$. This generalizes the usual definition in universal algebra, in which $P = Q$ and $f_1 = \cdo...
Courcelle's Theorem states that on graphs $G$ of tree-width at most $k$ with a given tree-decomposition of size $t(G)$, graph properties $\mathcal{P}$ definable in Monadic Second Order Logic can be checked in linear time in the size of $t(G)$. Inspired by L. Lov\'asz'work using connection matrices instead of logic, we...
