The dependency pair method of Arts and Giesl is the most powerful technique for proving termination of term rewrite systems automatically. We show that the method can be improved b...
Narrowing provides a complete procedure to solve equations modulo confluent and terminating rewriting systems. But it seldom terminates. This paper presents a method to improve th...
Usually termination of term rewriting systems TRS's is proved by means of a monotonic well-founded order. If this order is total on ground terms, the TRS is called totally ...
Monads can be used to model term rewriting systems by generalising the well-known equivalence between universal algebra and monads on the category Set. In [L¨u96], this semantics ...
Polynomial interpretations are a useful technique for proving termination of term rewrite systems. We show how polynomial interpretations with negative coefficients, like x - 1 for...
