Consider two $n \times 1$ vectors u and v, stored as tables  $\mathrm{U(ind, val)}$ and $\mathrm{V(ind, val)}$ with the same schema. A row $\left(i, u_{i}\right)$ of table $\mathrm{U}$ specifies that the $i$-th element of vector u has value $u_{i}$ (similarly for v, respectively). Only the non-zero entries of the vectors are stored in the corresponding tables. For example, if the vector u equals $(0,1,3,0,2,0)$, then it is represented in table $\mathrm{U}$ as:

ind val
