Detecting Embedded Horn Structure in Propositional Logic
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that the problem of nding a maximum renamable Horn problem within a propositional satis ability problem is NP hard but can be formulated as a set packing and therefore a maximum clique problem for which numerous algorithms and heuristics have been developed

Equality propositional logic and its extensions
We introduce a new formal logic, called equality propositional logic. It has two basic connectives, $boldsymbol{wedge}$ (conjunction) and $equiv$ (equivalence). Moreover, the $Rightarrow$ (implication) connective can be derived as $ARightarrow B:=(Aboldsymbol{wedge}B)equiv A$. We formulate the equality propositional logic and demonstrate that the resulting logic has reasonable properties such a...
متن کاملEntrenchment-Based Horn Contraction
The AGM framework is the benchmark approach in belief change. Since the framework assumes an underlying logic containing classical Propositional Logic, it can not be applied to systems with a logic weaker than Propositional Logic. To remedy this limitation, several researchers have studied AGM-style contraction and revision under the Horn fragment of Propositional Logic (i.e., Horn logic). In t...
متن کاملHorn Clauses and Feature-Structure Logic: Principles and Unification Algorithms
The desirability of Horn clauses in logical deductive systems has long been recognized. The reasons are at least threefold. Firstly, while inference algorithms for full logics of any reasonable extent are typically intractable, for systems restricted to Horn clauses the picture is much better. (For example, in ordinary propositional logic, while the full satisfiability problem is NP-complete, a...

متن کاملTranslating propositional extended conjunctions of Horn clauses into Boolean circuits
Horn is a logic programming language which extends usual Horn clauses by adding intuitionistic implication in goals and clause bodies. This extension can be seen as a form of structuring programs in logic programming. We are interested in finding correct and efficient translations from Horn⊃ programs into some representation type that, preserving the signature, allow us suitable implementations...
