We define a new framework for rewriting graphs, called a formal graph system (FGS), which is a logic program having hypergraphs instead of terms in first-order logic. We first prove that a class of graphs is generated by a hyperedge replacement grammar if and only if it is defined by an FGS of a special form called a regular FGS. In the same way as logic programs, we can define a refutation tree for an FGS. The classes of TTSP graphs and outerplanar graphs are definable by regular FGSs. Then, we consider the problem of constructing a refutation tree of a graph for these FGSs. For the FGS defining TTSP graphs, we present a refutation tree algorithm of 0(log2 n + log m) time with O(n + m) processors on an EREW PRAM. For the FGS defining outerplanar graphs, we show that the refutation tree problem can be solved in 0(log2 n) time with O(n + rn ) processors on an EREW PRAM. Here, n and m are the numbers of vertices and edges of an input graph, respectively.
