Prove that the quantifier-free theory of term algebras is convex (See [[Calculus of Computation Textbook]], Section 10.3.1). That is, show that, if $C$ is a conjunction of literals of form $t=t'$ and $t\neq t'$ where $t,t'$ are terms in some language (containing variables), and if formula | Prove that the quantifier-free theory of term algebras is convex (See [[Calculus of Computation Textbook]], Section 10.3.1).
