On the Properties and Characterisation of Connection-trap-free Schemes (Extended Abstract)
Summary: Defines connection-trap-free (CTF) schemes that guarantee easy, efficient retrieval of sound and complete answers by design, thereby eliminating the connection-trap problem. Develops core properties and characterizes independent CTF schemes assuming an embedded cover of FDs. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
