Equivalence-Invariant Algebraic Provenance for Hyperplane Update Queries

Summary: Proposes an equivalence-invariant provenance model for a fragment of hyperplane-update queries, grounded in Karabeg–Vianu axiomatization. Uses a normal-form provenance to avoid blowup, enabling efficient generation during evaluation; experiments show scalability. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
