The Impact of Virtual Views on Containment
Summary: Containment and equivalence for queries built from unions of conjunctive queries with iterative view definitions (non-recursive Datalog) under virtual views. Shows co-NEXPTIME-completeness, persists under schema/query restrictions, and isolates tractable subcases from NP to PSPACE. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
