We introduce parameterized rewrite systems for describing infinite families of finite string rewrite systems depending upon non-negative integer parameters, as well as ways to reas...
We prove that the properties of reachability, joinability and confluence are undecidable for flat TRSs. Here, a TRS is flat if the heights of the left and right-hand sides of each ...
Abstract. Narrowing is a method for solving equations in the equational theories of term rewriting systems. Unification and rewriting, the central operations in narrowing, are ofte...
We describe several technical tools that prove to be efficient for investigating the rewrite systems associated with an equational specification. These tools consist in introducing...
