Relational Algebra Queries for Conference Lecture Database

List of Lecturers and Their Universities

Question 1: Relational algebra

You have been asked to work with a database that records information about various lectures that are available for students at a conference. Each lecture addresses a topic, is presented by a lecturer. There are a limited number of seats in each of the venues, and this is reflected in the maximum number of students who can attend a lecture (capacity).The schema for this database is as follows: (note that primary keys are shown underlined, foreign keys in bold).
Provide relational algebra (NOT SQL) queries to find the following information.

NOTE:

You can use the symbols  s, P, etc or the words ‘PROJECT’, ‘RESTRICT’ etc as you prefer. 

You do not need to try to make efficient queries – just correct ones.

Where you use a join, always show the join condition.
