Title
A Combinatory Logic Approach to Higher-order E-unification (Extended Abstract)
Abstract
Let E be a first-order equational theory. A translation of higher-order E-unification problems into a combinatory logic framework is presented and justified. The case in which E admits presentation as a convergent term rewriting system is treated in detail: in this situation, a modification of ordinary narrowing is shown to be a complete method for enumerating higher-order E-unifiers. In fact, we treat a more general problem, in which the types of terms contain type variables.
