On The Recognition Of Coverings Of Acyclic Database Hypergraphs
Summary: Model schemas as hypergraphs with directed hyperedges encoding join and functional dependencies; define a database-hypergraph closure and relate it to JDs, FDs, tableaux and the chase. Prove equivalence: hypergraph admits an acyclic schema iff its closure is acyclic, and give algorithms showing recognition is polynomial-time in most cases. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
