\begin{frame} \begin{definition}[Redex occurrence] A \alert{redex occurrence} in a term $t$ is a pair $\langle p,\;\ell \to r \rangle$ such that \begin{itemize} \item $\ell \to r \in R$, and \item $\ell$ matches $t|_p$. \end{itemize} We write $s \mathrel{\stackrel{r} {\to}} t$ if $r$ is the redex occurrence contracted in the step $s \to t$. \end{definition} \begin{definition}[Pattern] The \alert{pattern} of a redex occurrence $\langle p,\;\ell \to r \rangle$ in $t$ are the symbol occurrences in $t$ at positions $pq$ with $q \in \Pos_\FF(\ell)$ a non-variable position in $\ell$. \end{definition} \begin{definition}[Overlap] Two redex occurrences: \begin{itemize} \item \alert{overlap} if their pattern share at least one symbol occurrence, \item are \alert{parallel} if their positions are parallel, and \item are \alert{nested} if they are not parallel and do not overlap. \end{itemize} \end{definition} \end{frame}
