Introducing priorities on rules in rewriting increases their expressive power and helps to limit computations. Priority rewriting is used in rule-based programming as well as in f...
We consider unary term rewriting, i.e., term rewriting with unary signatures where all function symbols are either unary or constants. Terms over such signatures can be transformed...
In this paper, we present a fully automatizable approach to detecting loops in standard term rewriting. Our method is based on semi-unification and an unfolding operation which pr...
For a given (terminating) term rewriting system one can often estimate its derivational complexity indirectly by looking at the proof method that established termination. In this s...
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...
