A Domain-theoretic Approach to Integrating Functional and Logic Database Languages
Summary: Extends functional database language PFL with first-class sets, subsuming Datalog^fun+nes and expressing logic rules as functions. Uses Plotkin powerdomains for denotational semantics, enabling combined functional/logic optimizations and constraint enforcement. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
