Certification Problem

Input (TPDB SRS_Standard/Waldmann_19/random-400)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

b(b(a(b(x1)))) a(a(a(a(x1)))) (1)
a(b(a(a(x1)))) a(b(b(b(x1)))) (2)
a(b(a(a(x1)))) b(a(b(b(x1)))) (3)

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

No.

Proof (by matchbox @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Loop

The following loop proves nontermination.

t0 = a(a(b(b(a(b(a(a(a(a(b(a(a(a(a(x1)))))))))))))))
