Input (TPDB TRS_Standard/Strategy_removed_AG01/#4.28)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

half(0) 0 (1)
half(s(0)) 0 (2)
half(s(s(x))) s(half(x)) (3)
bits(0) 0 (4)
bits(s(x)) s(bits(half(s(x)))) (5)

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.
bits#(s(x)) half#(s(x)) (6)
half#(s(s(x))) half#(x) (7)
bits#(s(x)) bits#(half(s(x))) (8)

1.1 Dependency Graph Processor

The dependency pairs are split into 2 components.
