In #defn_algJoin, in the line

Join(Ω1, Ω2) = { merge(μ1, μ2) | μ1 in Ω1and μ2 in Ω2, and μ1 and μ2 are compatible }

there should be a space: s/Ω1and/Ω1 and/

CONCAT refers fn:concat for it's defintion but fn:concat is only defined for 2 or more arguments whereas CONCAT alsp allows zero arguments and one argument.

The suggested fix is to extend the definition of CONCAT to be:

• CONCAT() = ""
• CONCAT(string literal X) = X
• CONCAT(X1, X2, ...) = fn:concat(X1, X2, ...)

See also the definition of GROUP_CONCAT.
