A relation schema R is in BCNF with respect to a set F of functional dependencies if for all functional dependencies in F+ of the form a->b, where a and b is a subset of R, at least one of the following holds:
*    a->b is a trivial functional dependency (b is a subset of a)
*    a is a superkey for schema R
