Higher-Order Critical Pairs
Abstract. We extend the termination proof methods based on reduction orderings to higher-order rewriting systems `a la Nipkow using higher-order pattern matching for firing rules,...

Termination analysis and call graph construction for higher-order functional programs
The analysis and verification of higher-order programs raises the issue of control-flow analysis for higher-order languages. The problem of constructing an accurate call graph for...

A3PAT, an approach for certified automated termination proofs
Software engineering, automated reasoning, rule-based programming or specifications often use rewriting systems for which termination, among other properties, may have to be ensur...

Size-change termination with difference constraints
lem of inferring termination from such abstract information is not the halting problem for programs and may well be decidable. If this is the case, the decision algorithm forms a &...

Cyclic proofs of program termination in separation logic
We propose a novel approach to proving the termination of heapmanipulating programs, which combines separation logic with cyclic proof within a Hoare-style proof system. Judgement...
