Abstract: The declarative semantics of nonmonotonic logic programming has largely been based on propositional programs. However, the ground instantiation of a logic program may be very large, and likewise, a "ground" stable model may also be very large. We develop a non-ground semantic theory for nonmonotonic logic programming. The principal advantage of this is that stable models and well-founded models can be represented as sets of atoms, rather than as sets of ground atoms. A set S of atoms may... (Update)

...such cases, it is better to admit tuples that contain variables which obey relevant constraints. Using this intuition, Gottlob et al. [14] and Eiter et al. 12] have defined a version of the well founded semantics of deductive databases that accommodates constraints. We...
