Here we study the computational complexity of the constrained synchronization
problem for the class of regular commutative constraint languages. Utilizing a
vector representation of regular commutative constraint languages, we give a
full classification of the computational complexity of the constraint
synchronization problem. Depending on the constraint language, our problem
becomes PSPACE-complete, NP-complete or polynomial time solvable. In addition,
we derive a polynomial time decision procedure for the complexity of the
constraint synchronization problem, given some constraint automaton accepting a
commutative language as input.Comment: Published in COCOON 2020 (The 26th International Computing and
Combinatorics Conference); 2nd version is update of the published version and
1st version; both contain a minor error, the assumption of maximality in the
NP-c and PSPACE-c results (propositions 5 & 6) is missing, and of
incomparability of the vectors in main theorem; fixed in this version. See
