Equivalence in Answer Set Programming - Osorio, Navarro, Arrazola (2001)   (3 citations)  (Correct)

....of Logic Programming in the last 12 years. The main syntactic restriction needed in this paradigm is to eliminate function symbols from the language. One important issue is to know when two programs are equivalent with respect to ASP. We consider a de nition for equivalence that is given in [6]. We say that P 1 and P 2 are strongly equivalent i for every program P , P 1 [ P and P 2 [ P have the same answer sets. If two programs are strongly equivalent we know that we can replace one by the other in any larger program without changing the declarative semantics. This is an important ....

....replace one by the other in any larger program without changing the declarative semantics. This is an important concept for software engineering. It is known that Jankov logic as well as the logic of here and there (HT) characterize the class of strongly equivalent augmented programs under STABLE [6, 3]. Since there is much research and available software on classical logic and intuitionistic logic, we present some results of strongly equivalence with respect to these logics. Augmented logic programs allow nested expressions permitted in the bodies and heads of rules. These expressions are ....

In this alternative approach, no knowledge of the logic of here and there was required. Moreover, the more direct characterization of strong ....

.... set of rules F G The syntax of a program de ned in [Lifschitz et al. 1999] is more general than the syntax de ned here in that a program can be in nite and can contain classical negation ( Classical negation can be easily eliminated by introducing auxiliary atoms as explained in [Lifschitz et al. 2001, Section 5] for all rules F G in . Finally, a set X of atoms is an answer set for a program if X is minimal among the sets of atoms that satisfy the reduct [ Lifschitz et al. 1999 ] A program 1 is strongly equivalent to a program 2 if, for every logic program , 1 [ ....

A preliminary report on the tightness of programs with nested expressions is published in [ Erdem and Lifschitz, 2001 ] The second question studied here is the tightness of logic programs containing the de nition of the transitive closure of a predicate: 3) Such rules are found in many useful programs. Unfortunately, the de nition of tightness may be dicult to verify directly for a program containing ....

.... becomes unnecessary [ Babovich et al. 2000 ] Our generalization of Fages theorem allows us to apply this method to smodels programs containing the f g construct [ Niemel a et al. 1999 ] because such programs can be viewed as a special case of programs with nested expressions [ Ferraris and Lifschitz, 2001 ] For instance, the rst of rules (1) can be written in the syntax of smodels as fpg. Third, program completion is closely related to the semantics of causal theories [ Giunchiglia et al. 2001 ] and to the input language of the Causal Calculator . Fages theorem and its generalizations ....

....program part 0 and leave the remaining part n 0 unchanged. For instance, if 0 is already a disjunctive logic program, we do not need to translate it again into another (equivalent) disjunctive logic program. Strong faithfulness is closely related to the concept of strong equivalence [22] (see below) Let us illustrate the practical relevance of this property by considering the well known graph problem of computing Hamiltonian paths: Given a directed graph (V; E) and a vertex a of this graph, determine INFSYS RR 1843 02 15 whether there exists a path in (V; E) starting at a and ....

The following concepts are central: Two logic programs, 1 and 2 , are equivalent iff they possess the same answer sets. Following Lifschitz et al. [22], we call 1 and 2 strongly equivalent iff, for every program , 1 [ and 2 [ are equivalent. We introduce more general equivalence notions in Section 4. 2.2 Equilibrium Logic Equilibrium logic is an approach to nonmonotonic reasoning that generalises the answer set semantics for logic ....

Weight Constraints as Nested Expressions - Ferraris, Lifschitz (2000)   (10 citations)  Self-citation (Lifschitz)   (Correct)

....strongly equivalent to a program 2 if, for every program , 1 [ has the same answer sets as 2 [ For instance, rule (2) is strongly equivalent to rule (1) so that replacing one of these rules by the other in any program does not affect that program s answer sets. 2 The main theorem of [Lifschitz et al. 2001] shows that the strong equivalence of programs with nested expressions is characterized by the truth tables of the three valued logic known as the logic of here and there. It may appear that the two extensions of the basic syntax of logic programs nested expressions and weight constraints ....

....as shorthand for nested expressions of some special kind. We define a conceptually simple, modular translation that maps programs with weight constraints to programs with nested expressions and preserves the program s answer sets. This translation can be used, in combination with the result of [Lifschitz et al. 2001] , to prove the strong equivalence of programs with weight constraints. For instance, the fact that rule (3) is strongly equivalent to 0 fa; bg 2 a; b (4) can be proved by transforming (3) and (4) into programs with nested expressions, as follows. Our translation turns (3) into (a; not ....
