→ |
b(c(a(x1))) |
(2) |
b(x1) |
→ |
c(x1) |
(3) |

1 Rule Removal
Using the
linear polynomial interpretation over the naturals
[a(x1)] |
= |
1 · x1 + 1 |
[b(x1)] |
= |
1 · x1 + 1 |
[c(x1)] |
= |
1 · x1
|
all of the following rules can be deleted.
1.1 Dependency Pair Transformation
The following set of initial dependency pairs has been identified.
a#(b(x1)) |
→ |
c#(a(x1)) |
(5) |
a#(b(x1)) |
→ |
a#(x1) |
(6) |
c#(b(x1)) |
→ |
a#(x1) |
(7) |
1.1.1 Monotonic Reduction Pair Processor
Using the linear polynomial interpretation over the naturals
[a(x1)] |
= |
2 + 1 · x1
|
[b(x1)] |
= |
2 + 1 · x1
|
[c(x1)] |
= |
1 · x1
|
[a#(x1)] |
= |
3 + 2 · x1
|
[c#(x1)] |
= |
2 · x1
|
the
pairs
a#(b(x1)) |
→ |
c#(a(x1)) |
(5) |
a#(b(x1)) |
→ |
a#(x1) |
(6) |
c#(b(x1)) |
→ |
a#(x1) |
(7) |
and
no rules
could be deleted.
