Q2. What are the future works in "The complexity of regularity in grammar logics and related modal logics" ?
Parametrized complexity is a powerful framework to study the complexity of problems where in the inputs, parameters can be distinguished ( see e. g. [ DF99 ] ). The remarks and suggestions of the anonymous referees on a previous version of this work were extremely valuable and helpful to improve the quality of this paper.
Q3. What are the features of DLs that allow a gain of expressive power for roles?
Inverse roles, transitive roles, role value inclusions and role hierarchies are features of DLs that allow a gain of expressive power for roles (see e.g. [HS99, HM00, HST00, Are00]).
Q4. How is the complexity upper bound established?
The complexity upper bound is established by defining a polynomial time transformations into the satisfiability problem for PDL with finite automata.
Q5. What are the grammatical constraints on relations?
The grammatical constraints on relations considered in the present paper can be viewed as role inclusion axioms for roles built from atomic roles and finite composition.
Q6. What is the way to study the complexity of modal logics?
The study of the complexity of PDL-like logics (e.g. the modal µ-calculus, Combinatory PDL) can be understood as the modal counterpart for the study of decidable fragments of second-order logic.
Q7. How can the authors know that the satisfiability problem of every regular grammar logic can?
The authors already know that the satisfiability problem of every regular grammar logic can be translated into satisfiability for the guarded fixed point logic µLGF that is in EXPTIME [Grä99b] when the relation symbols have bounded arity.
Q8. What is the meaning of the restriction of the map f to regular expressions?
The restriction of the map f to regular expressions simply takes advantage of the fact that any regular expression e over N ∪ Σ without occurrence of ∅ can be easily viewed as a syntactic variant of the program expression f(e).
Q9. What is the common approach to establish the decidability of modal logics?
A nowadays popular approach to establish the decidability of modal logics consists in studying the decidability status of fragments of first-order logic [Var97, ANB98] (see also [Gab81]).
Q10. What is the upper bound for REG-GSP(PDL(0))?
REG-GSP(PDL(0)) can be transformed in polynomial time to APDLsatisfiability which provides the required EXPTIME upper bound for REG-GSP(PDL(0)).
Q11. What is the deterministic exponential-time complexity lower bound?
GSP(REG) captures a form of recursion weaker than PDL(0)+id but as will be shown later, this restriction preserves the deterministic exponential-time complexity lower bound.
Q12. What is the proof for the general satisfiability problem for linear grammars?
the authors prove here that the general satisfiability problem for linear grammar logics is undecidable and the core of their proof uses a method based on properties of formal languages only.
Q13. How can the authors check whether a grammar satisfies the assumptions in Theore?
When TG is defined as in Example 48, checking whether a grammar satisfies the assumptions of any new theorem in Theorem 49(I) can be done in at most exponential time in |G|.
Q14. What are the undecidable problems of the form GSP(C)?
uniformly, one can design a finite axiomatization for LGCm and by using standard arguments from [Har58] (see also [BRV01, Chapter 6]), the undecidability of GSP(C) entails the existence of such GC and φC. Undecidable problems of the form GSP(C) can be found in Section 6.2 and Section 6.3.
