  • Abstract
    The commutative properties of nested relational operators in the context of optimization are examined. It is explained why commutativity is hard in algebras for nested relations. Six mutual dependencies between nested relations and other conditions are introduced, and an algebraic characterization of nested relational operators is given in terms of constraint satisfaction. The results contrast with the algebraic properties of relational operators. It is suggested that algebraic attempts should be pursued cautiously for the query optimization of nested relational models
