Abstract

Description logics have been studied as a logical foundation of web ontology languages. Interpolation theorems for description logics are known to be useful for extracting modular ontologies. In this paper, the interpolation theorems for two extended paraconsistent and temporal description logics are proved using some theorems for embedding these logics into a standard description logic.
