Reducibility of operation symbols in term rewriting systems and its application to behavioral specifications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper, we propose the notion of reducibility of symbols in term rewriting systems (TRSs). For a given algebraic specification, operation symbols can be classified on the basis of their denotations: the operation symbols for functions and those ...

Rewriting and Well-Definedness within a Proof System [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2010
Term rewriting has a significant presence in various areas, not least in automated theorem proving where it is used as a proof technique. Many theorem provers employ specialised proof tactics for rewriting.

On Constructing Constrained Tree Automata Recognizing Ground Instances of Constrained Terms [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2013
An inductive theorem proving method for constrained term rewriting systems, which is based on rewriting induction, needs a decision procedure for reduction-completeness of constrained terms.

Star Games and Hydras [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2021
The recursive path ordering is an established and crucial tool in term rewriting to prove termination. We revisit its presentation by means of some simple rules on trees (or corresponding terms) equipped with a 'star' as control symbol, signifying a ...

Reversible computation in term rewriting [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Logical and Algebraic Methods in Programming, 2018
Essentially, in a reversible programming language, for each forward computation from state $S$ to state $S'$, there exists a constructive method to go backwards from state $S'$ to state $S$. Besides its theoretical interest, reversible computation is a fundamental concept which is relevant in many different areas like cellular automata, bidirectional ...

Weakly-non-overlapping non-collapsing shallow term rewriting systems are confluent [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper shows that {weakly}-non-overlapping, non-collapsing andshallow term rewriting systems are confluent, which is a newsufficient condition on confluence for non-left-linear ...

Relative Undecidability in Term Rewriting [PDF]

open access: yesInformation and Computation, 1997
For two hierarchies of properties of term rewriting systems related to confluence and termination, respectively, we prove relative undecidability: for implications X⇒Y in the hierarchies the property X is undecidable for term rewriting systems satisfying Y.

Determinization of conditional term rewriting systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper discusses determinization of conditional term rewriting systems with oriented constructor rules. We present a rule-based transformation system, which transforms a non-deterministic one into a deterministic one, together with examples of the ...

A Minimal OO Calculus for Modelling Biological Systems [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2011
In this paper we present a minimal object oriented core calculus for modelling the biological notion of type that arises from biological ontologies in formalisms based on term rewriting.

Term Rewriting Systems as Topological Dynamical Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Topological dynamics is, roughly, the study of phenomena related to iterations of continuous maps from a metric space to itself. We show how the rewrite relation in term rewriting gives rise to dynamical systems in two distinct, natural ways: (A) One in ...
