Input (TPDB TRS_Standard/Transformed_CSR_04/ExIntrod_GM99_L)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

tail(cons(X)) Y (1)
if(true) X (2)
if(false) Y (3)
primes sieve(from(s(s(0)))) (4)
from(X) cons(X) (5)
head(cons(X)) X (6)
filter(s(s(X)),cons(Y)) if(divides(s(s(X)),Y)) (7)
sieve(cons(X)) cons(X) (8)

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

No.

Proof (by ttt2 @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Loop

The following loop proves nontermination.

t0 = tail(cons(X))
tail(cons(X))
= t1
where t1 = t0σ and σ = {Y/tail(cons(X))}
