Consider the schema with the attribute set ABCDEFH and the FDs. Prove that the decomposition (AD; A ? D ), (CE; C ? E ), (FA ; F ? A), (EF ; E ? F ), (BHE; BH ? E) is not lossless by providing a concrete relation instance over ABCDEFH that exhibits the loss of information when projected on this schema.

What will be an ideal response?


![14804|204x168](upload://j2hCchVZ1xE7IAkNhBj3gMCAXut.png)

This relation satis?es all the FDs. It is easy to verify, however, that the tuple a a a a a a a belongs to the join of the projections of this relation on the above schemas, but it is not one of the tuples in this relation. Therefore, this relation exhibits a case where information loss occurs due to the decomposition.
