Testability of Homomorphism Inadmissibility: Property Testing Meets Database Theory
Summary: Apply property testing to homomorphism inadmissibility for conjunctive queries: with constant queries and one-sided error, distinguish A→B from B that is far (needs deleting a constant fraction of tuples) from admitting a homomorphism. Main result: constant-query one-sided testability iff core(A) is α-acyclic; injective variant also testable for α-acyclic A, subsuming subgraph-freeness results.
