Is safe tuple relational calculus a turing complete language?
Let's forget about safety. By Codd's theorem, relational calculus is equivalent to first order logic. FOL is very limited, it can't express the fact that there's a route from a point A to point B in some graph (it can express the fact that there's a route from a point A to point B in limited length, for example ∃x ∃y ∃z ∃t route(a,x) and route(x,y) and route(y,z) and route(z,t) and route(t,b) means there's a route of length 4).
See descriptive complexity for a description of what is the strength of different logics.
