In this paper we use the decreasing diagrams technique to show that a left-linear term rewrite system R is confluent if all its critical pairs are joinable and the critical pair st...
We study the problem of generating e cient, equivalent rewritings using views to compute the answer to a query. We take the closed-world assumption, in which views are materialize...
It is known that the first-order theory with a single predicate → that denotes one-step rewriting reduction on terms is undecidable already for formulae with ∃∀ prefix. Sev...
Abstract. We show how polynomial path orders can be employed efficiently in conjunction with weak innermost dependency pairs to automatically certify the polynomial runtime comple...
Abstract. We address the problem of term normalisation modulo associativecommutative (AC) theories, and describe several techniques for compiling many-to-one AC matching and reduce...
