Weighted finite automata over strong bimonoids
: We investigate weighted finite automata over strings and strong bimonoids. Such algebraic structures satisfy the same laws as semirings except that no distributivity laws need t...

Satisfying KBO Constraints
Abstract. This paper presents two new approaches to prove termination of rewrite systems with the Knuth-Bendix order efficiently. The constraints for the weight function and for th...

An Algebra for Kripke Polynomial Coalgebras
Several dynamical systems, such as deterministic automata and labelled transition systems, can be described as coalgebras of so-called Kripke polynomial functors, built up from co...

Finding and Certifying Loops
Abstract. The first part of this paper presents a new approach for automatically proving nontermination of string rewrite systems. We encode rewrite sequences as propositional for...

Beyond Dependency Graphs
The dependency pair framework is a powerful technique for proving termination of rewrite systems. One of the most frequently used methods within the dependency pair framework is t...
