Résumé: Knuth-Bendix method applies to a rewrite system, and, when it succeeds, it yields an algorithm to decide if one term is equivalent to another. In this paper, we design a similar method that, when it succeeds, yields an algorithm to decide if one term reduces to another. As an application, we give new proofs of the decidability of reachability in ground rewrite systems and in pushdown systems.
