### Search before asking - [x] I searched in the [issues](https://github.com/apache/paimon-rust/issues) and found nothing similar. ### Description ## Motivation Apache Paimon has a first-class `VECTOR` type (`VECTOR<element, length>`), and tables written by Java/Python Paimon can contain `VECTOR` columns. paimon-rust has no `VectorType` today, so it cannot read these tables. Goal: give paimon-rust the ability to **read** Paimon `VECTOR` columns (read-only; writing and ANN search are out of scope). ## Scope (incremental PRs) - **PR 1** — Add native `VectorType` to the type system (variant, validation, JSON serde, `Display`). - **PR 2** — Arrow conversion (`VectorType` ↔ `FixedSizeList`) + read vector columns inlined in ordinary data files. - **PR 3** — Read dedicated `.vector.` files (parquet/vortex). ### Willingness to contribute - [x] I'm willing to submit a PR! -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
