On the Equivalence of Logical Databases
Summary: Models databases as theories (consistent FOL sentence sets) and studies database equivalence under single and simultaneous update operations. Develops theory-based update semantics prioritizing preservation of explicit facts to handle integrity-constraint repairs and non-uniqueness of updates. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
