Given a graph G and a collection of source-sink pairs in G, what is the least integer c such that each source can be connected by a path to its sink, with at most c paths going th...
A term t is called a template of terms t1 and t2 iff t1 = t1 and t2 = t2, for some substitutions 1 and 2. A template t of t1 and t2 is called the most specific iff for any template...

We consider the complexity of join problems, focusing on equijoins, spatial-overlap joins, and set-containment joins. We use a graph pebbling model to characterize these joins com...
