Generalized Satisfiability for the Description Logic ALC

The standard reasoning problem, concept satisfiability, in the basic description logic ALC is PSPACE-complete, and it is EXPTIME-complete in the presence of unrestricted axioms. Several fragments of ALC, notably logics in the FL, EL, and DL-Lite families, have an easier satisfiability problem; sometimes it is even tractable. We classify the complexity of the standard satisfiability problems for all possible Boolean and quantifier fragments of ALC in the presence of general axioms.
