Abstract

We identify commonality in the completeness proof strategies for Euler-based logics and show how, as expressiveness increases, the strategy readily extends. We identify a fragment of concept diagrams, an expressive Euler-based notation, and demonstrate that the completeness proof strategy does not extend to this fragment.
