It is entailed by its subgraph <eg:a> <eg:p> _:a . Also <eg:a> <eg:p> _:a . <eg:a> <eg:p> _:b . _:a <eg:q> _:c. Is not lean, entailed by <eg:a> <eg:p> _:a . _:a <eg:q> _:c. Similarly <eg:a> <eg:p> <eg:c> . <eg:a> <eg:p> _:b . is not lean, entailed by <eg:a> <eg:p> <eg:c> . Whereas <eg:a> <eg:p> _:a . <eg:a> <eg:p> _:b . _:a <eg:q> _:c. _:b <eg:r> _:d . is lean, since none of its proper subgraphs entail it. JeremyReceived on Monday, 21 November 2005 10:08:20 UTC
