Checking Containment of Schema Mappings (Preliminary Report)
In data exchange, data are materialised from a source schema to a target schema, according to suitable source-to-target constraints. Constraints are also expressed on the target sc...

On Impossibility of Decremental Recomputation of Recursive Queries in Relational Calculus and SQL
We study the problem of maintaining recursively-de ned views, such as the transitive closure of a relation, in traditional relational languages that do not have recursion mechanis...

Positive higher-order queries
We investigate a higher-order query language that embeds operators of the positive relational algebra within the simply-typed λ-calculus. Our language allows one to succinctly de...

On the Theory of Structural Subtyping
We show that the first-order theory of structural subtyping of non-recursive types is decidable. Let be a language consisting of function symbols (representing type constructors)...

Optimization Properties for Classes of Conjunctive Regular Path Queries
Abstract. We are interested in the theoretical foundations of the optimization of conjunctive regular path queries (CRPQs). The basic problem here is deciding query containment bot...
