Abstract
We give a decidable necessary and sufficient condition on two semi commutations θ1, θ2 such that the composition of \(f_{\theta _1 }\) and \(f_{\theta _2 }\) is a semi commutation function. This characterization uses the commutation graphs of θ1 and θ2, and the non commutation graphs of θ1 and θ −12 . Then we deduce a decidable graphic characterization of confluent semi commutations.
