Versatile Equivalences: Speeding up Subgraph Query Processing and Subgraph Matching

Summary: Introduces vertex-equivalence techniques to speed subgraph search and matching. Static equivalence among query-graph vertices yields a fixed, efficient matching order; dynamic equivalence among data-graph candidates prunes redundant search paths, delivering large speedups over state-of-the-art.
