Someone slept in my bed! On the entailment problem for conjunctive queries with safe negation over DL-Lite knowledge bases

Jerzy Marcinkowski, Piotr Ostropolski-Nalewaja

We solve a long standing open problem, showing that the query answering for conjunctive queries with safe negation, over DL-Lite knowledge bases, is undecidable.

On the entailment problem for DL-Lite ontologies and conjunctive queries with negation

Jerzy Marcinkowski, Piotr Ostropolski-Nalewaja

We show that the entailment problem, for a given entailment problem for DL-Lite ontology, and given conjunctive query with inequalities, is undecidable. We also show that…

About the Multi-Head Linear Restricted Chase Termination

Lukas Gerlach, Lucas Larroque, Jerzy Marcinkowski +1

The chase is a ubiquitous algorithm in database theory. However, for existential rules (aka tuple-generating dependencies), its termination is not guaranteed, and even undecidable…

Bag Semantics Query Containment: The CQ vs. UCQ Case and Other Stories

Jerzy Marcinkowski, Piotr Ostropolski-Nalewaja

Query Containment Problem (QCP) is a fundamental decision problem in query processing and optimization. While QCP has for a long time been completely understood for the case of set…

Monotone Rewritability and the Analysis of Queries, Views, and Rules

Michael Benedikt, Stanislav Kikot, Johannes Marti +1

We study the interaction of views, queries, and background knowledge in the form of existential rules. The motivating questions concern monotonic determinacy of a query using views…

Determinacy of Real Conjunctive Queries. The Boolean Case

Jarosław Kwiecień, Jerzy Marcinkowski, Piotr Ostropolski-Nalewaja

In their classical 1993 paper [CV93] Chaudhuri and Vardi notice that some fundamental database theory results and techniques fail to survive when we try to see query answers as bag…
