The first theorem that characterises the function reduce: a word reduces to its maximal
reduction.
The first theorem that characterises the function reduce: a word reduces to its
maximal reduction.
reduce is idempotent, i.e. the maximal reduction of the maximal reduction of a word is the
maximal reduction of the word.
reduce is idempotent, i.e. the maximal reduction of the maximal
reduction of a word is the maximal reduction of the word.
If a word reduces to another word, then they have a common maximal reduction.
If a word reduces to another word, then they have a common maximal reduction.

If a word reduces to another word, then they have a common maximal reduction.
If two words correspond to the same element in the free group, then they have a common maximal reduction. This is the proof that the function that sends an element of the free group to its maximal reduction is well-defined.
If two words correspond to the same element in the additive free group, then they have a common maximal reduction. This is the proof that the function that sends an element of the free group to its maximal reduction is well-defined.
A word and its maximal reduction correspond to the same element of the free group.
A word and its maximal reduction correspond to the same element of the additive free group.
If words w₁ w₂ are such that w₁ reduces to w₂, then w₂ reduces to the maximal reduction
of w₁.
If words w₁ w₂ are such that w₁ reduces to w₂, then w₂ reduces to the
maximal reduction of w₁.
