摘要
We study the expressiveness of Nested Graphs, an extension of conceptual graphs. Nesting is introduced as a formal version of the intuitive "zooming in" on descriptions of individuals. Projections are defined inductively as the formal tool for "reasoning with nested graphs:" Nested graphs are translated to "colored" formulas. Coloring represents anaphoras in a way similar to conceptual graphs. A system of Gentzen sequents is shown to be adequate and complete with respect to projections of nested graphs.
