Evaluating Datalog over Semirings: A Grounding-based Approach
Summary: Two-phase framework for Datalog over semirings: grounding to polynomial equations, then least-fixpoint evaluation. Structure-aware grounding minimizes grounding, and efficient fixpoint algorithms cover finite-rank and absorptive totally ordered semirings, with matching lower bounds.
