✦ Synopsis
We show that the generalized variant of rewriting logic where the underlying equational specifications are membership equational theories, and where the rules are conditional and can have equations, memberships and rewrites in the conditions is reflective. We also show that membership equational logic, many-sorted equational logic, and Horn logic with equality are likewise reflective. These results provide logical foundations for reflective languages and tools based on these logics, and in particular for the Maude language itself.
