   Abstract: Decomposable dependency models possess a number of
   interesting and useful properties. This paper presents new
   characterizations of decomposable models in terms of independence
   relationships, which are obtained by adding a single axiom to the
   well-known set characterizing dependency models that are isomorphic to
   undirected graphs. We also briefly discuss a potential application of
   our results to the problem of learning graphical models from data.
