Sesqui-Pushout Rewriting: Concurrency, Associativity and Rule Algebra Framework

Sesqui-pushout (SqPO) rewriting is a variant of transformations of graph-like and other types of structures that fit into the framework of adhesive categories where deletion in unknown context may be implemented. We provide the first account of a concurrency theorem for this important type of rewrit...
