On P/NP Dichotomies for EL Subsumption under Relational Constraints

by A. Kurucz, F. Wolter, M. Zakharyaschev
"... Abstract. We consider the problem of characterising relational constraints under which TBox reasoning in EL is tractable. We obtain P vs. coNP-hardness dichotomies for tabular constraints and constraints imposed on a single reflexive role. 1 ..."

...art from its theoretical interest, such a map can also be used for the selection of role boxes with acceptable computational properties in future standardisation efforts. In this paper, which extends =-=[8]-=-, we take first steps in this program by starting to map out the border between tractability and intractability of TBox reasoning in EL under arbitrary relational constraints. One of the fundamental q...

Abstract. Primal infon logic was introduced in 2009 in connection with access control. In addition to traditional logic constructs, it contains unary connectives p said indispensable in the intended access control applications. Propositional primal infon logic is decidable in linear time, yet suffices for many common access control scenarios. The most obvious limitation on its expressivity is the failure of the transitivity law for implication: x → y and y → z do not necessarily yield x → z. Here we introduce and investigate equiexpressive “transitive ” extensions TPIL and TPIL ∗ of propositional primal infon logic as well as their quote-free fragments TPIL0 and TPIL0 ∗ respectively. We prove the subformula property for TPIL0 ∗ and a similar property for TPIL ∗ ; we define Kripke models for the four logics and prove the corresponding soundness-and-completeness theorems; we show that, in all these logics, satisfiable formulas have small models; but our main result is a quadratic-time derivation algorithm for TPIL ∗. §1. Introduction. In a brick-and-mortar setting, some access control policies may be vague and even unwritten. The clerks ordinarily know them. When in doubt, they know whom to ask. In the cloud there are no clerks, and policies have to be managed automatically. The most challenging are federated scenarios where the policies of different

...that the validity problem for Kn, Tn, S4n and K45n, KD45n, S5n can be decided in linear time if the nesting of modal operators and propositional variables is restricted (Halpern, 1995). See articles (=-=Kurucz et al., 2010-=-, 2011) for the analysis of fragments of description logic EL (and some of its extensions) whose validity problem can be solved in polynomial time. Now, regarding propositional intuitionistic logic, t...

...ity; – x ∧ f(y) ≤ f(f(x) ∧ y) defines symmetry; – f(x) ∧ f(y) ≤ f(x ∧ y) defines functionality; – f(x ∧ y) ∧ f(x ∧ z) ≤ f(x ∧ f(y) ∧ f(z)) defines linearity over quasi-orders. (We refer the reader to =-=[6]-=- for first steps towards a correspondence theory for EL.) In contrast to modal logic, however, the ‘completeness’ part of Sahlqvist’s theorem does not hold. The possibly simplest example of an incompl...

elementarily generated modal logics Abstract. In this paper we consider the normal modal logics of elementary classes defined by first-order formulas of the form ∀x0∃x1...∃xn∧xiRλxj. We prove that many properties of these logics, such as finite axiomatisability, elementarity, axiomatisability by a set of canonical formulas or by a single generalised Sahlqvist formula, together with modal definability of the initial formula, either simultaneously hold or simultaneously do not hold.
