Drag Rewriting
arXiv:2406.16046
Abstract
We present a new and powerful algebraic framework for graph rewriting, based on drags, a class of graphs enjoying a novel composition operator. Graphs are embellished with roots and sprouts, which can be wired together to form edges. Drags enjoy a rich algebraic structure with sums and products. Drag rewriting naturally extends graph rewriting, dag rewriting, and term rewriting models.
