Input (TPDB SRS_Relative/Waldmann_06_relative/r8)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

a(b(a(x1))) c(c(c(x1))) (1)
c(c(c(x1))) a(c(a(x1))) (2)
a(x1) b(c(b(x1))) (3)

Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by matchbox @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Dependency Pair Transformation

The following set of initial dependency pairs has been identified.
c#(c(c(x1))) c#(a(x1)) (4)
c#(c(c(x1))) a#(x1) (5)
c#(c(c(x1))) a#(c(a(x1))) (6)
a#(x1) c#(b(x1)) (7)
a#(b(a(x1))) c#(x1) (8)
a#(b(a(x1))) c#(c(x1)) (9)
a#(b(a(x1))) c#(c(c(x1))) (10)

1.1 Dependency Graph Processor

The dependency pairs are split into 1 component.
