We discuss several classical reductions between CSPs over finite constraint languages. In particular we show that each constraint language may be replaced by the singleton expansion of its core. Further the complexity of CSP(Gamma) is determined by the variety generated by its polymorphism algebra.

Let denote a connected reductive algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic . Let be a Frobenius endomorphism. Let be the finite group of Lie type which is the fixed points of . Let be an -stable Borel subgroup of and let be an -stable maximal torus of contained in . Let . Denote the Weyl group of by . The element will denote a preimage of with respect to the natural surjection from to . The double cosets are called the Bruhat cells of . An element is called regular if the dimension of its centralizer is minimal. In this talk, we will discuss necessary and sufficient conditions for Bruhat cells to contain only regular elements. Furthermore, we will investigate Bruhat cells that contain both regular and nonregular elements but have cosets consisting entirely of regular elements.
