Polynomial Time Fragments of XPath with Variables
Abstract
Variables are the distiguishing new feature of XPath 2.0 which permits to select n-tuples of nodes in trees. It is known that the Core of XPath 2.0 captures n-ary first-order (FO) queries modulo linear time transformations. In this paper, we distinguish a fragment of Core XPath 2.0 that remains FO-complete with respect to n-ary queries while enjoying polynomial-time query answering.
