Abstract

The algorithm to compute theory prime implicates, a generalization of prime implicates, in propositional logic has been suggested in \citeMarquis. In this paper we have extended that algorithm to compute theory prime implicates of a knowledge base X with respect to another knowledge base \Box Y using \citeBienvenu, where Y is a propositional knowledge base and X\models Y, in modal system T and we have also proved its correctness. We have also proved that it is an equivalence preserving knowledge compilation and the size of theory prime implicates of X with respect to \Box Y is less than the size of the prime implicates of X∪\Box Y.
