Succinct Structure Representations for Efficient Query Optimization
Summary: Introduces linear-size meta-decompositions that compactly encode all join trees for acyclic queries, enabling polynomial-time enumeration and cost-based optimization without materializing plans. A new width notion captures plan guarantees; experiments show DP-comparable plans with orders-of-magnitude faster optimization. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 26 2026)
