Abstract
For non-monotonic logics, the notion of Rational Closure (RC) is acknowledged as one of the main approaches. In this work we
present an integration of RC within the triple language RDFS (Resource Description Framework Schema), which together with
OWL 2 is a major standard semantic web ontology language. To do so, we start from 𝜌df, an RDFS fragment that covers the
essential features of RDFS, and extend it to 𝜌𝑑𝑓⊥ , allowing to state that two entities are incompatible/disjoint with each other.
Eventually, we propose defeasible 𝜌𝑑𝑓⊥ via a typical RC construction allowing to state default class/property inclusions.

Keywords
RDFS, non-monotonic reasoning, defeasible reasoning, rational closure
