Nominal unification is an extension of first-order unification that takes
into account the \alpha-equivalence relation generated by binding operators,
following the nominal approach. We propose a sound and complete procedure for
nominal unification with commutative operators, or nominal C-unification for
short, which has been formalised in Coq. The procedure transforms nominal
C-unification problems into simpler (finite families) of fixpoint problems,
whose solutions can be generated by algebraic techniques on combinatorics of
permutations.Comment: Pre-proceedings paper presented at the 27th International Symposium
