Description

Symbolic rewriting techniques are methods for deriving consequences from systems of equations, and are of great use when investigating the structure of the solutions. Such techniques appear in many important areas of research within computer algebra: the Knuth-Bendix completion for groups, monoids and general term-rewriting systems; the Buchberger algorithm for Grobner bases; the Ritt-Wu characteristic set method for ordinary differential equations; and the Riquier-Janet method for partial differential equations. This volume contains invited and contributed papers to the "Symbolic Rewriting Techniques" workshop held at the Centro Stefano Franscini in Ascona, Switzerland from April 30th to May 4th, 1995. The workshop brought together 40 reseachers from various areas of rewriting techniques, the main goal being the investigation of common threads and methods. Following the workshops, each contribution was formally refereed and 14 papers were selected for publication.
