Certification Problem
Input (TPDB SRS_Relative/Waldmann_06_relative/r7)
The relative rewrite relation R/S is considered where R is the following TRS
b(b(b(x1))) |
→ |
x1 |
(1) |
c(c(c(x1))) |
→ |
a(a(x1)) |
(2) |
and S is the following TRS.
Property / Task
Prove or disprove termination.Answer / Result
Yes.Proof (by AProVE @ termCOMP 2023)
1 Closure Under Flat Contexts
Using the flat contexts
{b(☐), c(☐), a(☐)}
We obtain the transformed TRS
b(b(b(b(x1)))) |
→ |
b(x1) |
(4) |
c(b(b(b(x1)))) |
→ |
c(x1) |
(5) |
a(b(b(b(x1)))) |
→ |
a(x1) |
(6) |
b(c(c(c(x1)))) |
→ |
b(a(a(x1))) |
(7) |
c(c(c(c(x1)))) |
→ |
c(a(a(x1))) |
(8) |
a(c(c(c(x1)))) |
→ |
a(a(a(x1))) |
(9) |
a(x1) |
→ |
a(c(b(x1))) |
(3) |
1.1 Semantic Labeling
Root-labeling is applied.
We obtain the labeled TRS
bb(bb(bb(bb(x1)))) |
→ |
bb(x1) |
(10) |
bb(bb(bb(bc(x1)))) |
→ |
bc(x1) |
(11) |
bb(bb(bb(ba(x1)))) |
→ |
ba(x1) |
(12) |
cb(bb(bb(bb(x1)))) |
→ |
cb(x1) |
(13) |
cb(bb(bb(bc(x1)))) |
→ |
cc(x1) |
(14) |
cb(bb(bb(ba(x1)))) |
→ |
ca(x1) |
(15) |
ab(bb(bb(bb(x1)))) |
→ |
ab(x1) |
(16) |
ab(bb(bb(bc(x1)))) |
→ |
ac(x1) |
(17) |
ab(bb(bb(ba(x1)))) |
→ |
aa(x1) |
(18) |
bc(cc(cc(cb(x1)))) |
→ |
ba(aa(ab(x1))) |
(19) |
bc(cc(cc(cc(x1)))) |
→ |
ba(aa(ac(x1))) |
(20) |
bc(cc(cc(ca(x1)))) |

cc(cc(cc(cb(x1)))) |
→ |
ca(aa(ab(x1))) |
(22) |
cc(cc(cc(cc(x1)))) |
→ |
ca(aa(ac(x1))) |
(23) |

→ |
ca(aa(aa(x1))) |
(24) |
ac(cc(cc(cb(x1)))) |
→ |
aa(aa(ab(x1))) |
(25) |
ac(cc(cc(cc(x1)))) |
→ |
aa(aa(ac(x1))) |
(26) |
ac(cc(cc(ca(x1)))) |
→ |
aa(aa(aa(x1))) |
(27) |
ab(x1) |
→ |
ac(cb(bb(x1))) |
(28) |
ac(x1) |
→ |
ac(cb(bc(x1))) |
(29) |

1.1.1 Rule Removal
Using the
linear polynomial interpretation over the naturals
[bb(x1)] |
= |
1 + 1 · x1
|
[bc(x1)] |
= |
1 · x1
|
[ba(x1)] |
= |
1 · x1
|
[cb(x1)] |
= |
1 · x1
|
[cc(x1)] |
= |
1 + 1 · x1
|
[ca(x1)] |
= |
1 + 1 · x1
|
[ab(x1)] |
= |
1 + 1 · x1
|
[ac(x1)] |
= |
1 · x1
|
[aa(x1)] |
= |
1 · x1
|
all of the following rules can be deleted.
bb(bb(bb(bb(x1)))) |

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