1 Looping derivation
There is a looping derivation.
a a a a b a →+ ε a a a a b a ε
The derivation can be derived as follows.
-
a a a →+ a b b:
This is an original rule (OC1).
-
b a b →+ a b a:
This is an original rule (OC1).
-
a a a a b →+ a b a b a:
The overlap closure is obtained from the following two overlap closures (OC2).
-
a a a →+ a b b
-
b a b →+ a b a
-
a a a a b →+ a a b a a:
The overlap closure is obtained from the following two overlap closures (OC3).
-
a a a a b →+ a b a b a
-
b a b →+ a b a
-
a a a a b a →+ a a b a b b:
The overlap closure is obtained from the following two overlap closures (OC2).
-
a a a a b →+ a a b a a
-
a a a →+ a b b
-
a a a a b a →+ a a a b a b:
The overlap closure is obtained from the following two overlap closures (OC3).
-
a a a a b a →+ a a b a b b
-
