YES Termination w.r.t. Q proof of /home/cern_httpd/provide/research/cycsrs/tpdb/TPDB-d9b80194f163/SRS_Standard/Zantema_04/z115.srs

(0) Obligation:

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

a(a(x)) → d(c(x))
a(b(x)) → c(c(c(x)))
b(b(x)) → a(c(c(x)))
c(c(x)) → b(x)
c(d(x)) → a(a(x))
d(d(x)) → b(a(c(x)))

Q is empty.

(1) QTRSRRRProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

Used ordering:
Polynomial interpretation [POLO]:

POL(a(x1)) = 15 + x1   
POL(b(x1)) = 17 + x1   
POL(c(x1)) = 9 + x1   
POL(d(x1)) = 21 + x1   
With this ordering the following rules can be removed by the rule removal processor [LPAR04] because they are oriented strictly:

a(b(x)) → c(c(c(x)))
b(b(x)) → a(c(c(x)))
c(c(x)) → b(x)
d(d(x)) → b(a(c(x)))


(2) Obligation:

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

a(a(x)) → d(c(x))
c(d(x)) → a(a(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(a(x)) → C(x)
C(d(x)) → A(a(x))
C(d(x)) → A(x)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

a(a(x)) → d(c(x))
c(d(x)) → a(a(x))

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

(5) MRRProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

By using the rule removal processor [LPAR04] with the following ordering, at least one Dependency Pair or term rewrite system rule of this QDP problem can be strictly oriented.
Strictly oriented dependency pairs:

A(a(x)) → C(x)
C(d(x)) → A(a(x))
C(d(x)) → A(x)

Strictly oriented rules of the TRS R:

a(a(x)) → d(c(x))
c(d(x)) → a(a(x))

Used ordering: Polynomial interpretation [POLO]:

POL(A(x1)) = 2·x1   
POL(C(x1)) = 2·x1   
POL(a(x1)) = 1 + 2·x1   
POL(c(x1)) = 2·x1   
POL(d(x1)) = 2 + 2·x1   

(6) Obligation:

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

(7) PisEmptyProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

The TRS P is empty. Hence, there is no (P,Q,R) chain.
