Fast Matrix Multiplication for Query Processing
Summary: Leverages fast matrix multiplication to speed query processing; two-table join+project maps to Boolean matrix mult. Then generalizes to join-project queries, yielding polynomial gains over Yannakakis and first improvement for acyclic cases since 1981. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
