On Testing Satisfiability of Tree Pattern Queries
Summary: Systematic study of satisfiability for tree-pattern XPath queries, with/without schema; PTIME cases, NP-complete settings, and efficient algorithms. Experiments show satisfiability checking as cheap preprocessing, yielding query-evaluation savings. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
