Fast Matrix Multiplication meets the Submodular Width
Summary: Matrix-multiplication framework for Boolean conjunctive queries, unifying combinatorial and non-combinatorial techniques via information theory. Omega-submodular width extends submodular width to capture fast matrix multiplication; a matching algorithm runs in this width, recovering known bounds and revealing new faster cases.
