Direct Access for Conjunctive Queries with Negations

Authors: Florent Capelli and Oliver Irwin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 290, 27th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2024)

Abstract
Given a conjunctive query Q and a database 𝐃, a direct access to the answers of Q over 𝐃 is the operation of returning, given an index j, the j-th answer for some order on its answers. While this problem is #P-hard in general with respect to combined complexity, many conjunctive queries have an underlying structure that allows for a direct access to their answers for some lexicographical ordering that takes polylogarithmic time in the size of the database after a polynomial time precomputation. Previous work has precisely characterised the tractable classes and given fine-grained lower bounds on the precomputation time needed depending on the structure of the query. In this paper, we generalise these tractability results to the case of signed conjunctive queries, that is, conjunctive queries that may contain negative atoms. Our technique is based on a class of circuits that can represent relational data. We first show that this class supports tractable direct access after a polynomial time preprocessing. We then give bounds on the size of the circuit needed to represent the answer set of signed conjunctive queries depending on their structure. Both results combined together allow us to prove the tractability of direct access for a large class of conjunctive queries. On the one hand, we recover the known tractable classes from the literature in the case of positive conjunctive queries. On the other hand, we generalise and unify known tractability results about negative conjunctive queries - that is, queries having only negated atoms. In particular, we show that the class of β-acyclic negative conjunctive queries and the class of bounded nest set width negative conjunctive queries admit tractable direct access.

Containment of Regular Path Queries Under Path Constraints

Authors: Sylvain Salvati and Sophie Tison

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 290, 27th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2024)

Abstract
Data integrity is ensured by expressing constraints it should satisfy. One can also view constraints as data properties and take advantage of them for several tasks such as reasoning about data or accelerating query processing. In the context of graph databases, simple constraints can be expressed by means of path constraints while simple queries are modeled as regular path queries (RPQs). In this paper, we investigate the containment of RPQs under path constraints. We focus on word constraints that can be viewed as tuple-generating dependencies (TGDs) of the form ∀x_1,x_2, ∃y⁻, a_1(x_1,y_1) ∧ ... ∧ a_i(y_{i-1},y_i) ∧ ... ∧ a_n(y_{n-1},x_2) ⟶ ∃z⁻, b_1(x_1,z_1) ∧ ... ∧ b_i(z_{i-1},z_i) ∧ ... ∧ b_m(z_{m-1},x_2). Such a constraint means that whenever two nodes in a graph are connected by a path labeled a_1 … a_n, there is also a path labeled b_1 … b_m that connects them. Rewrite systems offer an abstract view of these TGDs: the rewrite rule a_1 … a_n → b_1 … b_m represents the previous constraint. A set of constraints 𝒞 is then represented by a rewrite system R and, when dealing with possibly infinite databases, a path query p is contained in a path query q under the constraints 𝒞 iff p rewrites to q with R. Contrary to what has been claimed in the literature we show that, when restricting to finite databases only, there are cases where a path query p is contained in a path query q under the constraints 𝒞 while p does not rewrite to q with R. More generally, we study the finite controllability of the containment of RPQs under word constraints, that is when this containment problem on unrestricted databases does coincide with the finite case. We give an exact characterisation of the cases where this equivalence holds. We then deduce the undecidability of the containment problem in the finite case even when RPQs are restricted to word queries. We prove several properties related to finite controllability, and in particular that it is undecidable. We also exhibit some classes of word constraints that ensure the finite controllability and the decidability of the containment problem.

Syntactically and Semantically Regular Languages of λ-Terms Coincide Through Logical Relations

Authors: Vincent Moreau and Lê Thành Dũng (Tito) Nguyễn

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 288, 32nd EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2024)

Abstract
A fundamental theme in automata theory is regular languages of words and trees, and their many equivalent definitions. Salvati has proposed a generalization to regular languages of simply typed λ-terms, defined using denotational semantics in finite sets. We provide here some evidence for its robustness. First, we give an equivalent syntactic characterization that naturally extends the seminal work of Hillebrand and Kanellakis connecting regular languages of words and syntactic λ-definability. Second, we show that any finitary extensional model of the simply typed λ-calculus, when used in Salvati’s definition, recognizes exactly the same class of languages of λ-terms as the category of finite sets does. The proofs of these two results rely on logical relations and can be seen as instances of a more general construction of a categorical nature, inspired by previous categorical accounts of logical relations using the gluing construction.

An Algebraic Approach to Vectorial Programs

Authors: Charles Paperman, Sylvain Salvati, and Claire Soyez-Martin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 254, 40th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2023)

Abstract
Vectorial programming, the combination of SIMD instructions with usual processor instructions, is known to speed-up many standard algorithms. Simple regular languages have benefited from this technology. This paper is a first step towards pushing these benefits further. We take advantage of the inner algebraic structure of regular languages and produce high level representations of efficient vectorial programs that recognize certain classes of regular languages. As a technical ingredient, we establish equivalences between classes of vectorial circuits and logical formalisms, namely unary temporal logic and first order logic. The main result is the construction of compilation procedures that turns syntactic semigroups into vectorial circuits. The circuits we obtain are small in that they improve known upper-bounds on representations of automata within the logical formalisms. The gain is mostly due to a careful sharing of sub-formulas based on algebraic tools.

Linear Programs with Conjunctive Queries

Authors: Florent Capelli, Nicolas Crosetti, Joachim Niehren, and Jan Ramon

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 220, 25th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2022)

Abstract
In this paper, we study the problem of optimizing a linear program whose variables are the answers to a conjunctive query. For this we propose the language LP(CQ) for specifying linear programs whose constraints and objective functions depend on the answer sets of conjunctive queries. We contribute an efficient algorithm for solving programs in a fragment of LP(CQ). The naive approach constructs a linear program having as many variables as there are elements in the answer set of the queries. Our approach constructs a linear program having the same optimal value but fewer variables. This is done by exploiting the structure of the conjunctive queries using generalized hypertree decompositions of small width to factorize elements of the answer set together. We illustrate the various applications of LP(CQ) programs on three examples: optimizing deliveries of resources, minimizing noise for differential privacy, and computing the s-measure of patterns in graphs as needed for data mining.

Linear High-Order Deterministic Tree Transducers with Regular Look-Ahead

Authors: Paul D. Gallot, Aurélien Lemay, and Sylvain Salvati

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 170, 45th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2020)

Abstract
We introduce the notion of high-order deterministic top-down tree transducers (HODT) whose outputs correspond to single-typed lambda-calculus formulas. These transducers are natural generalizations of known models of top-tree transducers such as: Deterministic Top-Down Tree Transducers, Macro Tree Transducers, Streaming Tree Transducers... We focus on the linear restriction of high order tree transducers with look-ahead (HODTR_lin), and prove this corresponds to tree to tree functional transformations defined by Monadic Second Order (MSO) logic. We give a specialized procedure for the composition of those transducers that uses a flow analysis based on coherence spaces and allows us to preserve the linearity of transducers. This procedure has a better complexity than classical algorithms for composition of other equivalent tree transducers, but raises the order of transducers. However, we also indicate that the order of a HODTR_lin can always be bounded by 3, and give a procedure that reduces the order of a HODTR_lin to 3. As those resulting HODTR_lin can then be transformed into other equivalent models, this gives an important insight on composition algorithm for other classes of transducers. Finally, we prove that those results partially translate to the case of almost linear HODTR: the class corresponds to the class of tree transformations performed by MSO with unfolding (not closed by composition), and provide a mechanism to reduce the order to 3 in this case.

On the Expressivity of Linear Recursion Schemes

Authors: Pierre Clairambault and Andrzej S. Murawski

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 138, 44th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2019)

Abstract
We investigate the expressive power of higher-order recursion schemes (HORS) restricted to linear types. Two formalisms are considered: multiplicative additive HORS (MAHORS), which feature both linear function types and products, and multiplicative HORS (MHORS), based on linear function types only. For MAHORS, we establish an equi-expressivity result with a variant of tree-stack automata. Consequently, we can show that MAHORS are strictly more expressive than first-order HORS, that they are incomparable with second-order HORS, and that the associated branch languages lie at the third level of the collapsible pushdown hierarchy. In the multiplicative case, we show that MHORS are equivalent to a special kind of pushdown automata. It follows that any MHORS can be translated to an equivalent first-order MHORS in polynomial time. Further, we show that MHORS generate regular trees and can be translated to equivalent order-0 HORS in exponential time. Consequently, MHORS turn out to have the same expressive power as 0-HORS but they can be exponentially more concise. Our results are obtained through a combination of techniques from game semantics, the geometry of interaction and automata theory.

On the Boundedness Problem for Higher-Order Pushdown Vector Addition Systems

Authors: Vincent Penelle, Sylvain Salvati, and Grégoire Sutre

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 122, 38th IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2018)

Abstract
Karp and Miller's algorithm is a well-known decision procedure that solves the termination and boundedness problems for vector addition systems with states (VASS), or equivalently Petri nets. This procedure was later extended to a general class of models, well-structured transition systems, and, more recently, to pushdown VASS. In this paper, we extend pushdown VASS to higher-order pushdown VASS (called HOPVASS), and we investigate whether an approach à la Karp and Miller can still be used to solve termination and boundedness. We provide a decidable characterisation of runs that can be iterated arbitrarily many times, which is the main ingredient of Karp and Miller's approach. However, the resulting Karp and Miller procedure only gives a semi-algorithm for HOPVASS. In fact, we show that coverability, termination and boundedness are all undecidable for HOPVASS, even in the restricted subcase of one counter and an order 2 stack. On the bright side, we prove that this semi-algorithm is in fact an algorithm for higher-order pushdown automata.

On the Decomposition of Finite-Valued Streaming String Transducers

Authors: Paul Gallot, Anca Muscholl, Gabriele Puppis, and Sylvain Salvati

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 66, 34th Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2017)

Abstract
We prove the following decomposition theorem: every 1-register streaming string transducer that associates a uniformly bounded number of outputs with each input can be effectively decomposed as a finite union of functional 1-register streaming string transducers. This theorem relies on a combinatorial result by Kortelainen concerning word equations with iterated factors. Our result implies the decidability of the equivalence problem for the considered class of transducers. This can be seen as a first step towards proving a more general decomposition theorem for streaming string transducers with multiple registers.

Ordered Tree-Pushdown Systems

Authors: Lorenzo Clemente, Pawel Parys, Sylvain Salvati, and Igor Walukiewicz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 45, 35th IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2015)

Abstract
We define a new class of pushdown systems where the pushdown is a tree instead of a word. We allow a limited form of lookahead on the pushdown conforming to a certain ordering restriction, and we show that the resulting class enjoys a decidable reachability problem. This follows from a preservation of recognizability result for the backward reachability relation of such systems. As an application, we show that our simple model can encode several formalisms generalizing pushdown systems, such as ordered multi-pushdown systems, annotated higher-order pushdown systems, the Krivine machine, and ordered annotated multi-pushdown systems. In each case, our procedure yields tight complexity.

A Model for Behavioural Properties of Higher-order Programs

Authors: Sylvain Salvati and Igor Walukiewicz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 41, 24th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2015)

Abstract
We consider simply typed lambda-calculus with fixpoints as a non-interpreted functional programming language: the result of the execution of a program is its normal form that can be seen as a potentially infinite tree of calls to built-in operations. Properties of such trees are properties of executions of programs and monadic second-order logic (MSOL) is well suited to express them. For a given MSOL property we show how to construct a finitary model recognizing it. In other words, the value of a lambda-term in the model determines if the tree that is the result of the execution of the term satisfies the property. The finiteness of the construction has as consequences many known results about the verification of higher-order programs in this framework.

Evaluation is MSOL-compatible

Authors: Sylvain Salvati and Igor Walukiewicz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 24, IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2013)

Abstract
We consider simply-typed lambda calculus with fixpoint operators. Evaluation of a term gives as a result the Böhm tree of the term. We show that evaluation is compatible with monadic second-order logic (MSOL). This means that for a fixed finite vocabulary of terms, the MSOL properties of Böhm trees of terms are effectively MSOL properties of terms themselves. Theorems of this kind have been known for some graph operations: unfolding, and Muchnik iteration. Similarly to those results, our main theorem has diverse applications. It can be used to show decidability results, to construct classes of graphs with decidable MSOL theory, or to obtain MSOL formulas expressing behavioral properties of terms. Another application is decidability of a control-flow synthesis problem.
