Efficient Subgraph Matching by Postponing Cartesian Products
Summary: Postpones Cartesian products in Ullmann-style subgraph matching to curb unpromising results from dissimilar vertices. Adds a path-based DS of size O(|E(G)|·|V(q)|) to reduce the |V(G)|^(|V(q)|−1) blowup and yield up to 3 orders of magnitude speedups. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
