Input (TPDB TRS_Innermost/Mixed_innermost/tricky1)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

f(g(x),g(y)) f(p(f(g(x),s(y))),g(s(p(x)))) (1)
p(0) g(0) (2)
g(s(p(x))) p(x) (3)
The evaluation strategy is innermost.

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by AProVE @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Dependency Pair Transformation

The following set of initial dependency pairs has been identified.
f#(g(x),g(y)) f#(p(f(g(x),s(y))),g(s(p(x)))) (4)
f#(g(x),g(y)) p#(f(g(x),s(y))) (5)
f#(g(x),g(y)) f#(g(x),s(y)) (6)
f#(g(x),g(y)) g#(s(p(x))) (7)
f#(g(x),g(y)) p#(x) (8)
p#(0) g#(0) (9)

1.1 Dependency Graph Processor

The dependency pairs are split into 0 components.
