High-dimensional collections of 0-1 data occur in many applications. The attributes in such data sets are typically considered to be unordered. However, in many cases there is a n...
A graph property is called monotone if it is closed under taking (not necessarily induced) subgraphs (or, equivalently, if it is closed under removal of edges and vertices). Many ...
This paper provides the first explicit construction of extractors which are simultaneously optimal up to constant factors in both seed length and output length. More precisely, fo...

We study the problem of generating e cient, equivalent rewritings using views to compute the answer to a query. We take the closed-world assumption, in which views are materialize...
We revisit the classical chase procedure, studying its properties as well as its applicability to standard database problems. We settle (in the negative) the open problem of decid...
