infChecker. A Tool for Checking Infeasibility

Abstract

[EN] Given a Conditional Term Rewriting System (CTRS) R and terms s and t, we say that the reachability condition s ->* t is *feasible* if there is a substitution \sigma instantiating the variables in s and t such that the *reachability test* \sigma(s)->* \sigma(t) succeeds; otherwise, we call it *infeasible*. Checking infeasibility of such (sequences of) reachability conditions is important in the analysis of computational properties of CTRSs, like confluence or operational termination. Recently, a logic-based approach to prove and disprove infeasibility has been introduced. In this paper we present infChecker, a new tool for checking infeasibility which is based on such an approach.Partially supported by the EU (FEDER), and projects RTI2018-094403-B-C32, PROMETEO/2019/098, and SP20180225.
