Certification Problem

Input (TPDB TRS_Standard/SK90/4.49)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

f(x,y,f(z,u,v)) f(f(x,y,z),u,f(x,y,v)) (1)

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

No.

Proof (by ttt2 @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Loop

The following loop proves nontermination.

t0 = f(x,y,f(z,u,v))
f(f(x,y,z),u,f(x,y,v))
= t1
where t1 = t0σ and σ = {v/v, u/y, z/x, y/u, x/f(x,y,z)}
