On The Satisfiability Of Dependency Constraints In Entity-Relationship Schemata
Summary: Strong satisfiability for ER cardinality constraints; ordinary satisfiability ignores emptiness of entities/relationships. Models constraints as linear inequalities; strong satisfiability holds iff a solution exists, and shows how to spot cons-sets blocking it. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
