Abstract: AC-matching is the problem of deciding whether an equation
involving a binary associative-commutative function symbol, formal
variables and formal constants has a solution. This problem is known
to be strong NP-complete and to play a fundamental role in equational
unication and automated deduction. We initiate an investigation of the
existence of a phase transition in random AC-matching and its relationship
to the performance of AC-matching solvers. We identify a parameter
that captures ... (Update)
