Query Evaluation via Tree-Decompositions
A number of efficient methods for evaluating first-order and monadic-second order queries on finite relational structures are based on tree-decompositions of structures or quer...

Expressiveness of Full First Order Constraints in the Algebra of Finite or Infinite Trees
We are interested in the expressiveness of constraints represented by general first order formulae, with equality as unique relation symbol and function symbols taken from an infi...

On the Power of Tree-Walking Automata
Abstract. Tree-walking automata (TWAs) recently received new attention in the fields of formal languages and databases. Towards a better understanding of their expressiveness, we c...
