Graph Indexing: Tree + Delta >= Graph

Summary: Tree+Delta is a cost-effective graph index for subgraph containment that combines frequent tree-features (Tree) with on-demand discriminative graphs (Delta) to improve pruning. It yields a compact index, two orders of magnitude faster construction, and outperforms gIndex and C-Tree in containment queries. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
