Input (TPDB TRS_Standard/SK90/2.22)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

exp(x,0) s(0) (1)
exp(x,s(y)) *(x,exp(x,y)) (2)
*(0,y) 0 (3)
*(s(x),y) +(y,*(x,y)) (4)
-(0,y) 0 (5)
-(x,0) x (6)
-(s(x),s(y)) -(x,y) (7)

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by NaTT @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Dependency Pair Transformation

The following set of initial dependency pairs has been identified.
exp#(x,s(y)) exp#(x,y) (8)
-#(s(x),s(y)) -#(x,y) (9)
exp#(x,s(y)) *#(x,exp(x,y)) (10)
*#(s(x),y) *#(x,y) (11)

1.1 Dependency Graph Processor

The dependency pairs are split into 3 components.
