We provide a tutorial introduction to the algebraic graph rewriting formalism PBPO+. We show how PBPO+ can be obtained by composing a few simple building blocks, and model the reduction rules for binary decision diagrams as an example.…
We introduce a termination method for the algebraic graph transformation framework PBPO+, in which we weigh objects by summing a class of weighted morphisms targeting them. The method is well-defined in rm-adhesive quasitoposes (which…
We extend the powerful Pullback-Pushout (PBPO) approach for graph rewriting with strong matching. Our approach, called \pbpostrong, exerts more control over the embedding of the pattern in the host graph, which is important for a large…

Term graph rewriting is important as "conceptual implementation" of the execution of functional programs, and of data-flow optimisations in compilers. One way to define term graph transformation rule application is via the well-established…
In this paper we present a new termination proof and complexity analysis of unfolding graph rewriting which is a specific kind of infinite graph rewriting expressing the general form of safe recursion. We introduce a termination order over…
So far, a very large amount of work in Natural Language Processing (NLP) rely on trees as the core mathematical structure to represent linguistic informations (e.g. in Chomsky's work). However, some linguistic phenomena do not cope properly…
We present a methodology for proving termination of left-linear term rewriting systems (TRSs) by using Albert Burroni's polygraphs, a kind of rewriting systems on algebraic circuits. We translate the considered TRS into a polygraph of…
We introduce techniques for proving uniform termination of graph transformation systems, based on matrix interpretations for string rewriting. We generalize this technique by adapting it to graph rewriting instead of string rewriting and by…
We present decidability results for termination of classes of term rewriting systems modulo permutative theories. Termination and innermost termination modulo permutative theories are shown to be decidable for term rewrite systems (TRS)…
Logically constrained term rewriting systems (LCTRSs) are a program analyzing formalism with native support for data types which are not (co)inductively defined. As a first-order formalism, LCTRSs have accommodated only analysis of…
The characterisation of termination using well-founded monotone algebras has been a milestone on the way to automated termination techniques, of which we have seen an extensive development over the past years. Both the semantic…
Term graph rewriting provides a simple mechanism to finitely represent restricted forms of infinitary term rewriting. The correspondence between infinitary term rewriting and term graph rewriting has been studied to some extent. However,…
In this paper we examine a number of term rewriting system for integer number representations, building further upon the datatype defining systems described in [2]. In particular, we look at automated methods for proving confluence and…
The relationship between Term Graph Rewriting and Term Rewriting is well understood: a single term graph reduction may correspond to several term reductions, due to sharing. It is also known that if term graphs are allowed to contain…
We refine the weighted type graph technique for proving termination of double pushout (DPO) graph transformation systems. We increase the power of the approach for graphs, we generalize the technique to other categories, and we allow for…
There are two kinds of approaches for termination analysis of logic programs: "transformational" and "direct" ones. Direct approaches prove termination directly on the basis of the logic program. Transformational approaches transform a…
Our goal is to study the feasibility of porting termination analysis techniques developed for one programming paradigm to another paradigm. In this paper, we show how to adapt termination analysis techniques based on polynomial…
It has been shown that, regarding a terminating right-linear overlay term rewrite system (TRS), any rewrite sequence ending with a normal form can be simulated by the innermost reduction. In this paper, using this simulation property, we…
Rewriting is a formalism widely used in computer science and mathematical logic. The classical formalism has been extended, in the context of functional languages, with an order over the rules and, in the context of rewrite based languages,…
