Beta Reduction Constraints
Author: Manuel Bodirsky and Katrin Erk and Alexander Koller and Joachim NiehrenEditor: Aart Middeldorp
The constraint language for lambda structures (CLLS)
can model lambda terms that are known only partially.
In this paper, we introduce beta reduction constraints
to describe beta reduction steps between partially known
lambda terms. We show that beta reduction constraints can
be expressed in an extension of CLLS by group
parallelism. We then extend a known semi-decision
procedure for CLLS to also deal with group parallelism
and thus with beta-reduction constraints.
