A Dichotomy in the Intensional Expressive Power of Nested Relational Calculi augmented with Aggregate Functions and a Powerset Operator

Summary: Dichotomy for NRC(Q,+,·,-,÷,Σ,powerset): on structures like long chains and deep trees, queries are either definable without powerset or require exponential space. Generalizes prior exponential lower bounds to SQL‑capturing calculi and to languages with a normal form and locality. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
