Polarized conceptual graphs (PGs) are simple conceptual graphs added with a restricted form of negation, namely negation on relations. Classical deduction with PGs (in short PG-Deduction) is highly intractable; it is indeed
${\Pi}^2_P$
complete. In [LM06] a brute-force algorithm for solving PG-Deduction was outlined. In the present paper, we extend previous work with two kinds of results. First, we exhibit particular cases of PGs for which the complexity of PG-Deduction decreases and becomes not more difficult than in simple conceptual graphs. Secondly, we improve the brute-force algorithm with several kinds of techniques based on properties concerning the graph structure and the labels.
