Abstract: We present an extension of Horn-clause logic which can hypothetically add
and delete tuples from a database. Such logics have been discussed in the literature,
but their complexities and expressibilities have remained an open question.
This paper examines two such logics in the function-free, predicate case. It is
shown, in particular, that augmenting Horn-clause logic with hypothetical addition
increases its data-complexity from PTIME to PSPACE. When deletions are
added as well, complexity... (Update)
