(0) Obligation:

Q restricted rewrite system:
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

a(x) → b(x)
b(a(b(b(x)))) → b(b(b(a(a(x)))))

Q is empty.

(1) QTRS Reverse (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We applied the QTRS Reverse Processor [REVERSE].

(2) Obligation:

Q restricted rewrite system:
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

a(x) → b(x)
b(b(a(b(x)))) → a(a(b(b(b(x)))))

Q is empty.

(3) DependencyPairsProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

Using Dependency Pairs [AG00,LPAR04] we result in the following initial DP problem.

(4) Obligation:

Q DP problem:
The TRS P consists of the following rules:

A(x) → B(x)
B(b(a(b(x)))) → A(a(b(b(b(x)))))
B(b(a(b(x)))) → A(b(b(b(x))))
B(b(a(b(x)))) → B(b(b(x)))
B(b(a(b(x)))) → B(b(x))

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

a(x) → b(x)
b(b(a(b(x)))) → a(a(b(b(b(x)))))

Q is empty.
We have to consider all minimal (P,Q,R)-chains.

(5) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04,JAR06].


The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.


B(b(a(b(x)))) → B(b(b(x)))
B(b(a(b(x)))) → B(b(x))
The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Matrix interpretation [MATRO] with arctic natural numbers [ARCTIC]:

POL(A(x1)) = 1A +
[0A,0A,0A]
·x1

POL(B(x1)) = 0A +
[0A,0A,-I]
·x1

POL(b(x1)) =
/-I\
|0A|
\0A/
 +
/0A0A0A\
|0A0A0A|
\0A-I0A/
·x1

POL(a(x1)) =
/0A\
|0A|
\0A/
 +
/0A0A0A\
|0A0A0A|
\0A1A0A/
·x1

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] with respect to the argument filtering of the ordering [JAR06] were oriented:

b(b(a(b(x)))) → a(a(b(b(b(x)))))
a(x) → b(x)

(6) Obligation:

The TRS P consists of the following rules:

A(x) → B(x)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

a(x) → b(x)
b(b(a(b(x)))) → a(a(b(b(b(x)))))

Q is empty.
We have to consider all minimal (P,Q,R)-chains.

The TRS P consists of the following rules:

B(b(a(b(x)))) → A(a(b(b(b(x)))))
B(b(a(b(x)))) → A(b(b(b(x))))

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

a(x) → b(x)

Q is empty.
We have to consider all minimal (P,Q,R)-chains.

(9) DependencyGraphProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

The approximation of the Dependency Graph [LPAR04,FROCOS05,EDGSTAR] contains 0 SCCs with 2 less nodes.
