<h4>Syntax Restriction</h4>

<p><i>Additional [[[#sparqlGrammar]]] note:</i></p>
10635+
<blockquote>
10636+
Any variable that is assigned to in the graph pattern of `EXISTS`/`NOT EXISTS` must not be in-scope.
10637+
This applies to `BIND`, variables introduced by `AS` in a `SELECT` clause, variables in a `VALUES`
10638+
clause, and variables introduced by `AS` in `GROUP BY`.
10639+
</blockquote>
10640+
<p>Extend the "in-scope" rules to include the variables in-scope from the current row:</p>

<h4>Remapping</h4>
10661+
<p>
10662+
Remapping ensures that a variable name used inside a project expression,
10663+
but which is not part of the results of the evaluation of the project expression,
10664+
does not coincide with a variable mentioned anywhere else in the
10665+
algebra expression of a query.
10666+
</p>
10667+
<p>
10668+
Renaming these variables does not change the results of evaluating
10669+
the project expresssion.
10670+
</p>
10671+
<div class="defn">
10672+
<b>Definition: <span id="defn_projmap" name="defn_projmap">Projection Expression Variable Remapping</span></b>
10673+
<p>
10674+
For a projection algebra operation #sparqlProjection `Project(A, PV)` acting on algreg express `A` and with set of variables `PV`, define
10675+
a partial mapping `F` from
10676+
`<a href="#sparqlQueryVariables">V</a>`,
10677+
the set of all variables, to `V` where:
10678+
</p>
10679+
<pre>F(v) = v1 if v is in PV, where v1 is a fresh variable
10680+
F(v) = v if v is not in PV</pre>
10681+
<p>
10682+
Define the Projection Expression Variable Remapping `ProjectMap(P,PV)`
10683+
</p>
10684+
<pre>ProjectMap(Project(A, PV)) = Project(A1, PV)
10685+
where A1 is the result of applying F
10686+
to every variable mentioned in A.
10687+
</pre>
10688+
<p>
10689+
The Projection Expression Variable Remapping yields an algrebra expression that
10690+
evaluates to the same results as the Project argument. No variable of `ProjectMap(Project(A, PV))`
10691+
that is not in `PV` is mentioned anywhere else in the algebra expression for the query.
10692+
</p>
10693+
</div>
10694+
<p>This process is applied throughout the graph pattern of <code>EXISTS</code>:</p>
10695+
<div class="defn">
10696+
<b>Definition: <span id="defn_varrename" name="defn_varrename">Variable Remapping</span></b>
10697+
<p>
10698+
For any algebra expression `X`, define the Variable Remapping `PrjMap(X)`
10699+
of algebra expression `X`:
10700+
</p>
10701+
<pre>PrjMap(X) = replace all project operations Project(P, PV)
10702+
with ProjectMap(P, PV) for each projection in X.</pre>
10703+
</div>
10704+
<p>
10705+
The outcome of `PrjMap` is independent of the order of replacement
10706+
(e.g. bottom-up or top-down).
10707+
Replacements may happen several times, depending on recursive order
10708+
but each time a replacement is made, the variable not used anywhere else.
10709+
</p>
10710+
10711+
<p class="note">
10712+
A variable inside a project expression that is not in the variables projected
10713+
is not affected by the values insertion operation because it is renamed apart.
