Complete geometrical query languages (extended abstract)
Summary: Extend Chandra–Harel to spatial DBs: constraint languages over semi-algebraic relations (R) complete for all computable queries generic under given spatial-transformation classes. Also present point-based geometric languages capturing relational calculus with real polynomial constraints. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
