The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

f(X) if(X,c,n__f(n__true)) (1)
if(true,X,Y) X (2)
if(false,X,Y) activate(Y) (3)
f(X) n__f(X) (4)
true n__true (5)
activate(n__f(X)) f(activate(X)) (6)
activate(n__true) true (7)
activate(X) X (8)

Property / Task

Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by AProVE @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Rule Removal

Using the linear polynomial interpretation over the naturals
[f(x1)] = 2 · x1
[if(x1, x2, x3)] = 1 · x1 + 1 · x2 + 2 · x3
[c] = 0
[n__f(x1)] = 2 · x1
[n__true] = 0
[true] = 0
[false] = 1
[activate(x1)] = 1 · x1
all of the following rules can be deleted.
if(false,X,Y) activate(Y) (3)

1.1 Rule Removal

Using the linear polynomial interpretation over the naturals
[f(x1)] = 2 + 2 · x1
[if(x1, x2, x3)] = 1 · x1 + 1 · x2 + 1 · x3
[c] = 0
[n__f(x1)] = 2 + 2 · x1
[n__true] = 0
[true] = 1
[activate(x1)] = 2 + 2 · x1
all of the following rules can be deleted.
if(true,X,Y) X (2)
true n__true (5)
activate(n__true) true (7)
activate(X) X (8)

1.1.1 Rule Removal

Using the
prec(f) = 2 stat(f) = lex
prec(if) = 0 stat(if) = lex
prec(c) = 0 stat(c) = lex
prec(n__f) = 1 stat(n__f) = lex
prec(n__true) = 2 stat(n__true) = lex
prec(activate) = 3 stat(activate) = lex

π(f) = [1]
π(if) = [2,3,1]
π(c) = []
π(n__f) = [1]
π(n__true) = []
π(activate) = [1]

all of the following rules can be deleted.
f(X) if(X,c,n__f(n__true)) (1)
f(X) n__f(X) (4)
activate(n__f(X)) f(activate(X)) (6)

1.1.1.1 R is empty

There are no rules in the TRS. Hence, it is terminating.
