concept bool CommonReference =
    Same< ranges::common_reference_t <T, U>, ranges::common_reference_t <U, T>> &&

    ConvertibleTo<U, ranges::common_reference_t <T, U>> ;
(ranges TS)

The concept CommonReference<T, U> specifies that two types T and U share a common reference type (as computed by ranges::common_reference_t

CommonReference<T, U> is satisfied only if, given expressions t and u such that decltype((t)) is T and decltype((u)) is U

In other words, the conversion to the common reference type must not alter the equality-preservation property of the original expression.

Equality preservation

An expression is equality preserving if it results in equal outputs given equal inputs.

  • The inputs to an expression consist of its operands.
  • The outputs of an expression consist of its result and all operands modified by the expression (if any).

Every expression required to be equality preserving is further required to be stable
