Model-theoretic Characterizations of Rule-based Ontologies
Summary: Model-theoretic characterizations of tgd-based ontologies (full, linear, guarded, frontier-guarded) via critical instances, direct products, and a novel locality property. Locality yields decision procedures and effective rewritings for frontier-guarded→guarded and guarded→linear tgds. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
