Synthesizing Nested Relational Queries from Implicit Specifications
Summary: Effective Beth-style implicit→explicit conversion for nested relations: from a proof of implicit definability in the natural nested-logic, synthesize an explicit NRC query. Yields effective extraction of NRC rewritings of queries using NRC views from determinacy proofs. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
