A Rewriting Calculus for Cyclic Higher-order Term Graphs

Introduced at the end of the nineties, the Rewriting Calculus (ρ-calculus, for short) is a simple calculus that fully integrates term-rewriting and λ-calculus. The rewrite rules, acting as elaborated abstractions, their application and the obtained structured results are first class objects of the calculus. The evaluation mechanism, generalizing beta-reduction, strongly relies on term matching in various theories.In this paper we propose an extension of the ρ-calculus, handling graph like structures rather than simple terms. The transformations are performed by explicit application of rewrite rules as first class entities. The possibility of expressing sharing and cycles allows one to represent and compute over regular infinite entities.The calculus over terms is naturally generalized by using unification constraints in addition to the standard ρ-calculus matching constraints. This therefore provides us with the basics for a natural extension of an explicit substitution calculus to term graphs. Several examples illustrating the introduced concepts are given.     

Lifting Infinite Normal Form Definitions From Term Rewriting to Term Graph Rewriting

nfinite normal forms are a way of giving semantics to non-terminating rewrite systems. The notion is a generalization of the Böhm tree in the lambda calculus. It was first introduced in [Ariola, Z. M. and S. Blom, Cyclic lambda calculi, in: Abadi and Ito [Abadi, M. and T. Ito, editors, “Theoretical Aspects of Computer Software,” Lecture Notes in Computer Science 1281, Springer Verlag, 1997], pp. 77–106] to provide semantics for a lambda calculus on terms with letrec. In that paper infinite normal forms were defined directly on the graph rewrite system. In [Blom, S., “Term Graph Rewriting - syntax and semantics,” Ph.D. thesis, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (2001)] the framework was improved by defining the infinite normal form of a term graph using the infinite normal form on terms. This approach of lifting the definition makes the non-confluence problems introduced into term graph rewriting by substitution rules much easier to deal with. In this paper, we give a simplified presentation of the latter approach.     

Logical Semantics for the Rewriting Calculus

The Rewriting Calculus has been proposed as a language for defining term rewriting strategies. Rules are explicitly represented as terms, and are applied explicitly to other terms to transform them. Sets of rules may be applied to (sets of) terms non-deterministically to obtain sets of results. Strategies are implemented as rules which accept other rules as arguments and apply them in certain ways. This paper describes work in progress to strengthen the Rewriting Calculus by giving it a logical semantics. Such a semantics can provide crucial guidance for studying the language and increasing its expressive power. The latter is demonstrated by adding support to the Rewriting Calculus for what we call higher-form rewriting, where rules rewrite other rules. The logical semantics used is based on ordered linear logic. The paper develops the ideas through several examples.     

Bisimilarity in Term Graph Rewriting

We present a survey of confluence properties of (acyclic) term graph rewriting. Results and counterexamples are given for different kinds of term graph rewriting; besides plain applications of rewrite rules, extensions with the operations of collapsing and copying, and both operations together are considered. Collapsing and copying together constitute bisimilarity of term graphs. We establish sufficient conditions for—and counterexamples to—confluence, confluence modulo bisimilarity, and the Church–Rosser property modulo bisimilarity. Moreover, we address rewriting modulo bisimilarity, that is, rewriting of bisimilarity classes of term graphs.     

A Rewriting Machine and Optimization of Strategies of Term Rewriting

An algebraic specification of a new rewriting machine for fast rewriting of terms is considered. Theorems on the correctness of this specification are proved. A method for optimization of a strategy of iterative rewriting is proposed.     

Term Rewriting with Type-safe Traversal Functions

Term rewriting is an appealing technique for performing program analysis and program transformation. Tree (term) traversal is frequently used but is not supported by standard term rewriting. In this paper, many-sorted first-order term rewriting is extended with automatic tree traversal by adding two primitive tree traversal strategies and complementing them with three types of traversals. These so-called traversal functions can be either top-down or bottom-up. They can be sort preserving, mapping to a single sort, or a combination of these two. Traversal functions have a simple design, their application is type-safe in a first-order many-sorted setting and can be implemented efficiently. We describe the operational semantics of traversal functions and discuss applications.     

Inequational Deduction as Term Graph Rewriting

Multi-algebras allow to model nondeterminism in an algebraic framework by interpreting operators as functions from individual arguments to sets of possible results.We propose a simple inequational deduction system, based on term graphs, for inferring inclusions of derived relations in a multi-algebra, and we show that term graph rewriting provides a sound and complete implementation of it.
