Abstract

Bubbling, a recently introduced graph transformation for functional logic computations, is well-suited for the reduction of redexes with distinct replacements. Unlike backtracking, bubbling preserves operational completeness; unlike copying, it avoids the up-front construction of large contexts of redexes, an expensive and frequently wasteful operation. We recall the notion of bubbling and offer the first proof of its completeness and soundness with respect to rewriting.
