Decidability and Undecidability Results for Propositional Schemata
We define a logic of propositional formula schemata adding to the syntax of propositional logic indexed propositions (e.g., pi) and iterated connectives ∨ or ∧ ranging over i...

Revision of DL-Lite Knowledge Bases
Abstract. We address the revision problem for knowledge bases (KBs) in Description Logics (DLs). This problem has received much attention in the ontology management and DL communit...

Using simplified event calculus in digital investigation
In a hypothesis-based approach to digital investigation, the investigator formulates his hypothesis about which events took place, and tests them using the evidence available. A f...

Knowledge Base Reformation: Preparing First-Order Theories for Efficient Propositional Reasoning
We present an approach to knowledge compilation that transforms a function-free first-order Horn knowledge base to propositional logic. This form of compilation is important since...

Qualitative choice logic
Qualitative choice logic (QCL) is a propositional logic for representing alternative, ranked options for problem solutions. The logic adds to classical propositional logic a new c...

The Completeness of Propositional Resolution: A Simple and Constructive Proof
It is well known that the resolution method (for propositional logic) is complete. However, completeness proofs found in the literature use an argument by contradiction showing tha...

Glivenko theorems for substructural logics over FL
It is well known that classical propositional logic can be interpreted in intuitionistic propositional logic. In particular Glivenko's theorem states that a formula is provabl...

A Non-Deterministic Semantics for Tractable Inference
Unit resolution is arguably the most useful known algorithm for tractable reasoning in propositional logic. Intuitively, if one knows a, b, and a b c, then c should be an obviou...

A Logic for Reasoning about Upper Probabilities
We present a propositional logic to reason about the uncertainty of events, where the uncertainty is modeled by a set of probability measures assigning an interval of probability ...
