YES Termination Proof

Termination Proof

by ttt2 (version ttt2 1.15)

Input

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

a(a(a(x0))) a(b(b(b(x0))))
b(b(a(b(x0)))) a(a(a(x0)))

Proof

1 Dependency Pair Transformation

The following set of initial dependency pairs has been identified.
a#(a(a(x0))) b#(x0)
a#(a(a(x0))) b#(b(x0))
a#(a(a(x0))) b#(b(b(x0)))
a#(a(a(x0))) a#(b(b(b(x0))))
b#(b(a(b(x0)))) a#(x0)
b#(b(a(b(x0)))) a#(a(x0))
b#(b(a(b(x0)))) a#(a(a(x0)))

1.1 Reduction Pair Processor with Usable Rules

Using the linear polynomial interpretation over the arctic semiring over the integers
[b(x1)] = 2 · x1 + -∞
[b#(x1)] = 8 · x1 + -∞
[a(x1)] = 3 · x1 + -∞
[a#(x1)] = 6 · x1 + -∞
together with the usable rules
a(a(a(x0))) a(b(b(b(x0))))
b(b(a(b(x0)))) a(a(a(x0)))
(w.r.t. the implicit argument filter of the reduction pair), the pairs
a#(a(a(x0))) b#(b(b(x0)))
a#(a(a(x0))) a#(b(b(b(x0))))
remain.

1.1.1 Dependency Graph Processor

The dependency pairs are split into 1 component.
