(LaTeX) Abstract:
We introduce a concept language for representing knowledge.
Relying on the well-known correspondence between the description
logic ${\cal ALC}$ and the multi-modal logic $K_{(m)}$,
we define a {\em hybrid language\/} that is an extension of $K_{(m)}$.
The language (in addition to the propositional variables and
modal operators) contains variables across individuals and
a quantifier that binds them. Combining features of modal
and first-order logic, our formalism increases the expressivity
of $\cal{ALC}$ in a natural and uniform way.
In particular, it can define number restrictions,
collections of individuals and membership assertions.
In fact, the hybrid language is a general formalism in which a
variety of descriptive concepts as well as TBox-
and ABox-statements can be formulated in a natural way.
We present an axiomatisation and prove its completeness
by using so-called {\it witnessed} models as a
bridge between modal and first-order completeness techniques.
