English abstract:
Abstract argumentation plays an important role in many advanced AI formalisms. It is thus vital to understand the strengths and limits of the different semantics available. In this work, we contribute to this line of research and investigate two recently proposed properties: rejected arguments and implicit conflicts. Given an argumentation framework F, the former refers to arguments in F which do not occur in any extension of F; the latter refers to pairs of arguments which do not occur together in any extension of F despite not being linked in F's attack relation. We consider four prominent semantics, viz. stable, preferred, semi-stable and stage and show that their expressive power relies on both properties. Among our results, we refute a recent conjecture by Baumann et al. on implicit conflicts.
