    Implementing Default and Autoepistemic Logics via the Logic of GK

    The logic of knowledge and justified assumptions, also known as logic of grounded knowledge (GK), was proposed by Lin and Shoham as a general logic for nonmonotonic reasoning. To date, it has been used to embed in it default logic (propositional case), autoepistemic logic, Turner's logic of universal causation, and general logic programming under stable model semantics. Besides showing the generality of GK as a logic for nonmonotonic reasoning, these embeddings shed light on the relationships among these other logics. In this paper, for the first time, we show how the logic of GK can be embedded into disjunctive logic programming in a polynomial but non-modular translation with new variables. The result can then be used to compute the extension/expansion semantics of default logic, autoepistemic logic and Turner's logic of universal causation by disjunctive ASP solvers such as claspD(-2), DLV, GNT and cmodels.Comment: Proceedings of the 15th International Workshop on Non-Monotonic Reasoning (NMR 2014

    Adsorption of molecular oxygen on doped graphene: atomic, electronic and magnetic properties

    Adsorption of molecular oxygen on B-, N-, Al-, Si-, P-, Cr- and Mn-doped graphene is theoretically studied using density functional theory in order to clarify if O2 can change the possibility of using doped graphene for gas sensors, electronic and spintronic devices. O2 is physisorbed on B-, and Ndoped graphene with small adsorption energy and long distance from the graphene plane, indicating the oxidation will not happen; chemisorption is observed on Al-, Si-, P-, Cr- and Mn-doped graphene. The local curvature caused by the large bond length of X-C (X represents the dopants) relative to CC bond plays a very important role in this chemisorption. The chemisorption of O2 induces dramatic changes of electronic structures and localized spin polarization of doped graphene, and in particular, chemisorption of O2 on Cr-doped graphene is antiferromagnetic. The analysis of electronic density of states shows the contribution of the hybridization between O and dopants is mainly from the p or d orbitals. Furthermore, spin density shows that the magnetization locates mainly around the doped atoms, which may be responsible for the Kondo effect. These special properties supply a good choice to control the electronic properties and spin polarization in the field of graphene engineering.Comment: 7 pages, 10 figure
