Excerpt from Approximate and Optimal Strategies for Non-Ambiguous and Left Linear Term Rewriting Systems The termination and conﬂuence properties of term rewriting systems (trs for short) have been studied thoroughly. To prove termination, many orderings, such as recursive path ordering, path orderings, etc., and polynomial interpretations can be For various applications of trs, any simple and effective proof method for termination may be invented. Conﬂuence was studied in deep in [huet80] and the complete procedure to obtain a confluent system are introduced in So far, we are able to design terminating and confluent trsja term rewriting system that has both termination and confluence properties is called a canonical trs. In this report, we consider how to efficiently compute the normal form of a term for a canonical trs. In a canonical trs, any term has a unique normal form. This advantage of canonical trs is used to solve the word problem in equational logic and other problems in reduction systems. Computing normal forms of terms is a basic procedure in any application of trs. If we have some way to improve efficiency for normal form rewriting, efficiency for entire application will be improved.

China after Mao has undergone vast transformations, including massive rural-to-urban migration, rising divorce rates, and the steady expansion of the country's legal system. Today, divorce may appear a private concern, when in fact it is a profoundly political matter—especially in a national context where marriage was and has continued to be a key vehicle for nation-state building. Marriage Unbound focuses on the politics of divorce cases in contemporary China, following a group of women seeking judicial remedies for conjugal grievances and disputes. Drawing on extensive archival and ethnographic data, paired with unprecedented access to rural Chinese courtrooms, Ke Li presents not only a stirring portrayal of how these women navigate divorce litigation, but also a uniquely in-depth account of the modern Chinese legal system. With sensitive and fluid prose, Li reveals the struggles between the powerful and the powerless at the front lines of dispute management; the complex interplay between culture and the state; and insidious statecraft that far too often sacrifices women's rights and interests. Ultimately, this book shows how women's legal mobilization and rights contention can forge new ground for our understanding of law, politics, and inequality in an authoritarian regime.

State Law, Power, and Inequality in Contemporary China

Marriage Unbound
