چکیده

We resolve an open problem concerning finite logical implication for path functional dependencies (PFDs). This note is an addendum to [4]. In this note we show that the finite logical implication for description logics endowed with PFDs is undecidable. This result complements the decidability of the unrestricted problem that is complete for EXPTIME [2,3].

Undecidability Results for Database-Inspired Reasoning Problems in Very Expressive Description Logics

Recently, the field of knowledge representation is drawing a lot of inspiration from database theory. In particular, in the area of description logics and ontology languages, interest has shifted from satisfiability checking to query answering, with various query notions adopted from databases, like (unions of) conjunctive queries or different kinds of path queries. Likewise, the finite model s...

Description Logics Diego Calvanese

This chapter covers extensions of the basic description logics introduced in Chapter 2 by very expressive constructs that require advanced reasoning techniques. In particular, we study reasoning in description logics that include general inclusion axioms, inverse roles, number-restrictions, reflexive-transitive closure of roles, fixpoint constructs for recursive definitions, and relations of ar...
