When is Shapley Value Computation a Matter of Counting?
Summary: Connects Shapley value computation (SVC) to FGMC via reductions, clarifying when SVC hardness mirrors FGMC for fixed-query sub-databases. Establishes FP-#P dichotomies for constant-free unions of connected conjunctive queries and for connected, homomorphism-closed graph queries; also studies variants that disallow assumed facts or counting constants.
