On the Difference of Horn Theories (Extended Abstract) - Eiter, Ibaraki, Makino   (Correct)

.... the familiar representation in terms of Horn CNFs, we also consider the model based representation of Horn theories through their sets of characteristic models [10] This alternative has also been studied repeatedly, since it offers advantages to formula based representation in certain cases; see [13, 10, 4] for more details. Our results on the complexity of these issues are summarized in Table 1, which gives a complete picture of the tractability intractability frontier of these problems. The table also shows results on the Horn envelope [11, 12] of the difference, i.e. the (unique) least Horn ....

.... Sigma 2 be Horn theories, and let S 1 as in (3.8) Then Cl (S 1 ) Sigma 2 = holds if and only if Sigma 1 n Sigma 2 is a Horn theory. Furthermore, if Sigma 1 n Sigma 2 is a Horn theory, then Cl (S 1 ) Sigma 1 n Sigma 2 (i.e. C (S 1 ) C ( Sigma 1 n Sigma 2 ) holds. It is known [4] that given Q 1 ; Q 2 f0; 1g n , deciding Cl (Q 1 ) Cl (Q 2 ) is possible in O(n(jQ 1 j jQ 1 j) time. Since Sigma 2 = Cl (C ( Sigma 2 ) we thus obtain from Lemma 2, turned into a straightforward algorithm, the following result. Theorem 2. Let Sigma 1 , Sigma 2 be Horn theories. ....
