Abstract

We study decidability of a term rewriting system R modulo equational theories associative (A) or associative-commutative (AC). The study of this problem is motivated by possible applications to handle multiplication (∗) and division (/) algebras. We use several steps to prove the term rewriting system R modulo equational theories is decidable.
