Research direction

The issue includes a test case in YAML showing that aggregate functions (count, max, min, avg, sum) on an empty table return 'empty set' instead of zeros. Look for the SQL execution engine code handling aggregate functions and empty result sets. Run the provided test to reproduce the issue, then examine how aggregate functions compute results when no rows are present.
