A Formal Language Perspective on Factorized Representations

Authors: Benny Kimelfeld, Wim Martens, and Matthias Niewerth

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 328, 28th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2025)


Abstract
Factorized representations (FRs) are a well-known tool to succinctly represent results of join queries and have been originally defined using the named database perspective. We define FRs in the unnamed database perspective and use them to establish several new connections. First, unnamed FRs can be exponentially more succinct than named FRs, but this difference can be alleviated by imposing a disjointness condition on columns. Conversely, named FRs can also be exponentially more succinct than unnamed FRs. Second, unnamed FRs are the same as (i.e., isomorphic to) context-free grammars for languages in which each word has the same length. This tight connection allows us to transfer a wide range of results on context-free grammars to database factorization; of which we offer a selection in the paper. Third, when we generalize unnamed FRs to arbitrary sets of tuples, they become a generalization of path multiset representations, a formalism that was recently introduced to succinctly represent sets of paths in the context of graph database query evaluation.

Enumeration of Minimal Hitting Sets Parameterized by Treewidth

Authors: Batya Kenig and Dan Shlomo Mizrahi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 328, 28th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2025)


Abstract
Enumerating the minimal hitting sets of a hypergraph is a problem which arises in many data management applications that include constraint mining, discovering unique column combinations, and enumerating database repairs. Previously, Eiter et al. [Thomas Eiter et al., 2003] showed that the minimal hitting sets of an n-vertex hypergraph, with treewidth w, can be enumerated with delay O^*(n^w) (ignoring polynomial factors), with space requirements that scale with the output size. We improve this to fixed-parameter-linear delay, following an FPT preprocessing phase. The memory consumption of our algorithm is exponential with respect to the treewidth of the hypergraph.

TimeFabric: Trusted Time for Permissioned Blockchains

Authors: Aritra Mitra, Christian Gorenflo, Lukasz Golab, and S. Keshav

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 92, 4th International Symposium on Foundations and Applications of Blockchain 2021 (FAB 2021)


Abstract
As the popularity of blockchains continues to rise, blockchain platforms must be enhanced to support new application needs. In this paper, we propose one such enhancement that is essential for financial applications and online marketplaces - support for time-based logic such as verifying deadlines or expiry dates and examining a time window of recent account activity. We present a lightweight solution to reach consensus on the current time without relying on external time oracles. Our solution assigns timestamps to blocks at transaction validation time and maintains a cache reflecting the effects of recent transactions. We implement a proof-of-concept prototype, called TimeFabric, in Hyperledger Fabric, a popular permissioned blockchain platform, and experimentally demonstrate high throughput and minimal overhead (approximately 3%) of maintaining trusted time. We also demonstrate a 2x performance improvement due to the cache, compared to reconstructing account histories from the ledger.
