Resumen de Deriving bisimulation congruences in the DPO approach to graph rewriting with borrowed contexts
Hartmut Ehrig, Bárbara Konig
Motivated by recent work on the derivation of labelled transitions and bisimulation congruences from unlabelled reaction rules, we show how to address this problem in the DPO (double-pushout) approach to graph rewriting. Unlike the case with previous approaches, we consider graphs as objects, rather than arrows, of the category under consideration. This allows us to present a very simple way of deriving labelled transitions (called rewriting steps with borrowed context), which integrates smoothly with the DPO approach, has a very constructive nature and requires only a minimum of category theory. The core part of this paper is the proof that the bisimilarity based on graph rewriting with borrowed contexts is a congruence relation. We will also introduce some proof techniques and compare our approach with the derivation of labelled transitions via relative pushouts.
