Topological rewriting systems applied to standard bases and syntactic algebras
share
We propose a functional description of rewriting systems on topological vector spaces. We introduce the topological confluence property as an approximation of the confluence property. Using a representation of linear topological rewriting systems with continuous reduction operators, we show that the topological confluence is characterised by lattice operations. We relate these operations to standard bases and show that the latter induce topologically confluent rewriting systems on formal power series. Finally, we investigate duality for reduction operators that we relate to series representations and syntactic algebras. In particular, we use duality for proving that an algebra is syntactic or not.
