Contractions of Planar Graphs in Polynomial Time
Abstract. We prove that for every graph H, there exists a polynomial-time algorithm deciding if a planar graph can be contracted to H. We introduce contractions and topological min...

On Correspondences between Probabilistic First-Order and Description Logics
Abstract This paper analyzes the probabilistic description logic PSHIQ by looking at it as a fragment of probabilistic first-order logic with semantics based on possible worlds. We...
