Integrating Information by Outerjoins and Full Disjunctions (Extended Abstract)

Summary: Characterize when a full disjunction (preserving all possible connections among facts) can be obtained by a sequence of natural outerjoins, driven by integrating scattered web information. Show necessary and sufficient condition: the relation-scheme hypergraph must be connected and γ-acyclic (Fagin). (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
