Decidability of a Description Logic over Infinite-Valued Product Logic

This paper proves that validity and satisfiability of assertions in the Fuzzy Description Logic based on infinite-valued Product Logic with universal and existential quantifiers (which are non-interdefinable) is decidable when we only consider quasi-witnessed interpretations. We prove that this restriction is neither necessary for the validity problem (i.e., the validity of assertions in the Fuzzy Description Logic based on infinite-valued Product Logic is decidable) nor for the positive satisfiability problem, because quasi-witnessed interpretations are particularly adequate for the infinite-valued Product Logic. We give an algorithm that reduces the problem of validity (and satisfiability) of assertions in our Fuzzy Description Logic (restricted to quasi-witnessed interpretations) to a semantic consequence problem, with finite number of hypothesis, on infinite-valued propositional Product Logic.
