Integrity constraints are rules that define valid data for tables. The main types are entity integrity, referential integrity, and domain integrity. Entity integrity requires each row to have a unique primary key. Referential integrity enforces relationships between tables through foreign keys. Domain integrity checks that values are of the expected data type. Equi joins match rows where joined columns have equal values. Outer joins return all rows from one or both tables even if the joined columns do not match. Mapping strong entities to tables, weak entities to tables with a composite primary key including the parent entity's primary key, and multi-valued attributes to linking tables maintains data integrity in the relational model.
