Contextual Union Finds

Read Original

The article discusses the need for rewriting under assumptions in egraph systems, such as in conditional branches or inductive proofs. It introduces contextual union finds as a simpler case to understand hierarchical union finds, where child contexts inherit but don't mutate parent equalities. It compares dense (vector-based) and sparse (hashmap-based) union find implementations and references related research on persistent data structures.
