1 Looping derivation
There is a looping derivation.
b b a a →+ ε b b a a ε
The derivation can be derived as follows.
-
b b →+ a b a:
This is an original rule (OC1).
-
a a a →+ b b b:
This is an original rule (OC1).
-
a a a →+ b a b a:
The overlap closure is obtained from the following two overlap closures (OC2).
