Abstract
We close the gap in the complexity classification of subsumption in the simple description logic ${\cal FL}_0$, which allows for conjunctions and universal value restriction only. We prove that the subsumption problem in ${\cal FL}_0$ is PSPACE-complete for descriptive semantics when cyclic definitions are allowed. Our proof uses automata theory and as a by-product we establish the PSPACE-completeness of a certain decision problem for regular languages.
