The HOM Problem is EXPTIME-Complete
2016
SIAM journal on computing (Print)
Tree automata with disequality and implicit HOM equality constraints. ...
As a consequence, we obtain several EXPTIMEcompleteness results for problems on images of regular tree languages under tree homomorphisms, like set inclusion, regularity (HOM problem), and finiteness of ...
The homomorphism (HOM) problem questions, for a given regular tree language L described by a tree automaton and a tree homomorphism H, whether H(L) is regular. ...

Approximately Counting Answers to Conjunctive Queries with Disequalities and Negations
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
However, if there are neither disequalities nor negations, we prove the existence of an FPRAS for queries of bounded fractional hypertreewidth, strictly generalising the recently established FPRAS for ...
We establish an exhaustive classification into tractable and intractable cases if φ is a conjunctive query with disequalities and negations: ∙ If there is a constant bound on the arity of φ, and if the ...
Consequently by ( 2 ) there is a homomorphism h from A(ϕ) to B(ϕ, D) that extends τ and satisfies all disequalities in ∆(ϕ), that is, h(x i ) = h(x j ) for all {x i , x j } ∈ ∆(ϕ). ...

Boolean Tensor Decomposition for Conjunctive Queries with Negation

Its data complexity matches that of the InsideOut and PANDA algorithms for the positive subquery of the input query and is expressed in terms of the fractional hypertree width and the submodular width ...
We show how to rewrite queries with negation on bounded-degree relations into equivalent conjunctive queries with not-all-equal (NAE) predicates, which are a multi-dimensional analog of disequality ( = ...

Automata on Infinite Trees with Equality and Disequality Constraints Between Siblings
2016
Proceedings of the 31st Annual ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science - LICS '16
Roughly speaking we consider parity tree automata where some transitions are guarded and can be used only when the two direct sub-trees of the current node are equal/disequal. ...
The first one is by Bogaert and Tison who considered a model of automata on finite ranked trees where one can check equality and disequality constraints between direct subtrees: they proved that this class ...

Further conclusions of our development include a dichotomy for enumeration with linear delay, and a dichotomy for CQs with disequalities. ...
A known dichotomy classifies the acyclic self-join-free CQs into those that admit such enumeration, and those that do not. ...

Tractable Lineages on Treelike Instances
2016
Proceedings of the 35th ACM SIGMOD-SIGACT-SIGAI Symposium on Principles of Database Systems - PODS '16
By contrast, we can strengthen the previous dichotomy to lineages, and show that there are even UCQs with disequalities that have superpolynomial OBDDs on all unbounded-treewidth graph classes; we give ...
This dichotomy relies on recent polynomial bounds on the extraction of planar graphs as minors, and implies lower bounds in non-probabilistic settings, for query evaluation and match counting in subinstance-closed ...

Tractable Reasoning in a Fragment of Separation Logic
[chapter]
2011
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In 2004, Berdine, Calcagno and O'Hearn introduced a fragment of separation logic that allows for reasoning about programs with pointers and linked lists. ...
Entailment between two such formulae then reduces to a graph homomorphism problem. We also discuss natural syntactic extensions that render entailment intractable. ...
