Beyond Equi-joins: Ranking, Enumeration and Factorization

Summary: Ranked theta-join enumeration with inequalities; top-k on acyclic full joins in O(n polylog n + k log k). On-the-fly factorized output representation; memory-efficient, fast; experiments show orders-of-magnitude speedups over state-of-the-art DB systems. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
