Fixed-Point Constraints for Nominal Equational Unification
2018
International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications
We propose a new axiomatisation of the alpha-equivalence relation for nominal terms, based on a primitive notion of fixed-point constraint. ...
This gives rise to a new notion of nominal unification, where solutions for unification problems are pairs of a fixed-point context and a substitution. ...
For instance, checking whether [a]s ≈ α [b]t reduces to checking 7:2 Fixed-Point Constraints for Nominal Equational Unification whether s ≈ α (b a) · t and a#t. ...

Nominal Unification of Higher Order Expressions with Recursive Let
[article]
2016
arXiv
pre-print
We also explore specializations like nominal letrec-matching for plain expressions and for DAGs and determine the complexity of corresponding unification problems. ...
A sound and complete algorithm for nominal unification of higher-order expressions with a recursive let is described, and shown to run in non-deterministic polynomial time. ...
Conclusion and Future Research We constructed a nominal letrec unification algorithm, several nominal letrec matching algorithms for variants, which all run in nondeterministic polynomial time. ...

Nominal Unification and Matching of Higher Order Expressions with Recursive Let
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
A sound and complete algorithm for nominal unification of higher-order expressions with a recursive let is described, and shown to run in nondeterministic polynomial time. ...
In addition we prove that there is a guessing strategy for nominal unification with letrec and atom-variable that is a trade-off between exponential growth and non-determinism. ...
We omit failure rules, since these obviously follow from the nominal matching algorithm. ...

With a particular strategy for rule application, the simplification process terminates and thus specifies an algorithm to solve nominal equational problems. ...
As future work, we aim to investigate the purely equational approach to nominal syntax via the formulation of freshness constraints using fixed-point equations with the N-quantifier [21] , as well as ...
