چکیده

This paper proves that any monoid presented by a confluent context-free monadic rewriting system is word-hyperbolic. This result then applied to answer a question asked by Duncan&Gilman by exhibiting an example of a word-hyperbolic monoid that does not admit a word-hyperbolic structure with uniqueness (that is, in which the language of representatives maps bijectively onto the monoid).

Infinite Words and Confluent Rewriting Systems: Endomorphism Extensions

Infinite words over a finite special confluent rewriting system R are considered and endowed with natural algebraic and topological structures. Their geometric significance is explored in the context of Gromov hyperbolic spaces. Given an endomorphism φ of the monoid generated by R, existence and uniqueness of several types of extensions of φ to infinite words (endomorphism extensions, weak endo...

Innnite Convergent String-rewriting Systems and Cross-sections for Monoids

A nitely presented monoid has a decidable word problem if and only if it can be presented by some left-recursive convergent string-rewriting system if and only if it has a recursive cross-section. However, context-free cross-sections or even regular cross-sections do not suuce. This is shown by presenting examples of nitely presented monoids with decidable word problems that do not admit regula...

Efficient Parsing of Well-Nested Linear Context-Free Rewriting Systems

The use of well-nested linear context-free rewriting systems has been empirically motivated for modeling of the syntax of languages with discontinuous constituents or relatively free word order. We present a chart-based parsing algorithm that asymptotically improves the known running time upper bound for this class of rewriting systems. Our result is obtained through a linear space construction...

Hyperbolicity of monoids presented by confluent monadic rewriting systems

The geometry of the Cayley graphs of monoids defined by regular confluent monadic rewriting systems is studied. Using geometric and combinatorial arguments, these Cayley graphs are proved to be hyperbolic, and the monoids to be word-hyperbolic in the Duncan–Gilman sense. The hyperbolic boundary of the Cayley graph is described in the case of finite confluent monadic rewriting systems.

Uniqueness Typing for Functional Languages with Graph Rewriting Semantics

We present two type systems for term graph rewriting: conventional typing and (polymorphic) uniqueness typing. The latter is introduced as a natural extension of simple algebraic and higher-order uniqueness typing. The systems are given in natural deduction style using an inductive syntax of graph denotations with familiar constructs such as let and case. The conventional system resembles tradi...
