Input (COPS 159)

We consider the TRS containing the following rules:

+(x,0)	→	x	(1)
+(x,s(y))	→	s(+(x,y))	(2)
+(0,y)	→	y	(3)
+(s(x),y)	→	s(+(x,y))	(4)
inc(x)	→	s(x)	(5)
+(x,y)	→	+(y,x)	(6)
inc(+(x,y))	→	+(inc(x),y)	(7)

The underlying signature is as follows:

{+/2, 0/0, s/1, inc/1}

1.2 Rule Labeling

Confluence is proven, because all critical peaks can be joined decreasingly using the following rule labeling function (rules that are not shown have label 0).

+(x,0) → x (1)
↦ 0
+(x,s(y)) → s(+(x,y)) (2)
↦ 1
+(0,y) → y (3)
↦ 0
+(s(x),y) → s(+(x,y)) (4)
↦ 0
inc(x) → s(x) (5)
↦ 0
+(x,y) → +(y,x) (6)
↦ 2
inc(+(x,y)) → +(inc(x),y) (7)
↦ 3
