1 Looping derivation
There is a looping derivation.
a b b c b →+ b c b a b b c b a
The derivation can be derived as follows.
-
a b →+ b a c b a a:
This is an original rule (OC1).
-
a →+ ε:
This is an original rule (OC1).
-
a b →+ b c b a a:
The overlap closure is obtained from the following two overlap closures (OC3).
-
