| Description | We consider rewriting as a tool for solving identity problems in varieties of idempotent semigroups. It is known that there exist finite canonical term rewrite systems and finite canonical word rewrite systems for only a very limited number of those varieties. We present a finite canonical conditional word rewrite system for a particular variety in which the classical approaches cannot be applied. Moreover, we obtain infinite single letter deleting rewrite systems for each join-irreducible variety. |
