Abstract: We introduce Higher-Order Rewrite Systems (HRS) which extend term rewriting to -terms. HRS can describe computations on arbitrary terms with bound variables. We show that rewriting is closely related to undirected equational reasoning, and extend three confluence results from term rewriting to HRS: the critical pair lemma by Knuth and Bendix, confluence of rewriting modulo equations à la Huet, and confluence of orthogonal HRS.

.... notions of higher order rewriting defined by Klop (Combinatory Reduction Systems [30,31] Nipkow (Higher order Rewrite Systems [39,34]) and van Raamsdonk and van Oostrom (Higher Order Rewriting Systems [49,50] generalizing both) are based on higher order pattern...

...of future work. 2 Preliminaries We first describe the meta language of simply typed # calculus. The notation is roughly consistent with [2, 9, 15]. 2.1 The Simply Typed # Calculus Starting with a fixed set of base types B, the set of all types is the closure of B under...
