We consider the TRS containing the following rules:
| f(x,h(x)) | → | f(h(x),x) | (1) |
| f(g(x),y) | → | f(g(y),g(x)) | (2) |
| f(x,y) | → | f(y,x) | (3) |
| g(h(x)) | → | h(h(x)) | (4) |
| h(x) | → | g(x) | (5) |
| g(x) | → | x | (6) |
The underlying signature is as follows:
{f/2, h/1, g/1}To prove that the TRS is (non-)confluent, we show (non-)confluence of the following modified system:
| f(x,y) | → | f(y,x) | (3) |
| h(x) | → | g(x) | (5) |
| g(x) | → | x | (6) |
All redundant rules that were added or removed can be simulated in 4 steps .
Confluence is proven using the following terminating critical-pair-closing-system R:
There are no rules.
There are no rules in the TRS. Hence, it is terminating.
