Sound Global Caching for Abstract Modal Tableaux

We abstract our work on global caching for multimodal description logic ALC to broaden its applicability. The abstract setting allows us to prove the soundness of global caching for various tableau calculi of exptime-complete modal/description logics to produce optimal (exptime) decision procedures (see, e.g., [4–7]).
