Input (TPDB TRS_Innermost/Transformed_CSR_innermost_04/Ex9_BLR02_L)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

filter(cons(X),0,M) cons(0) (1)
filter(cons(X),s(N),M) cons(X) (2)
sieve(cons(0)) cons(0) (3)
sieve(cons(s(N))) cons(s(N)) (4)
nats(N) cons(N) (5)
zprimes sieve(nats(s(s(0)))) (6)
The evaluation strategy is innermost.

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by AProVE @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Rule Removal

Using the Knuth Bendix order with w0 = 1 and the following precedence and weight functions
prec(0) = 1 weight(0) = 3
prec(zprimes) = 5 weight(zprimes) = 8
prec(cons) = 3 weight(cons) = 1
prec(s) = 4 weight(s) = 1
prec(sieve) = 6 weight(sieve) = 0
prec(nats) = 2 weight(nats) = 2
prec(filter) = 0 weight(filter) = 0
all of the following rules can be deleted.
filter(cons(X),0,M) cons(0) (1)
filter(cons(X),s(N),M) cons(X) (2)
sieve(cons(0)) cons(0) (3)
sieve(cons(s(N))) cons(s(N)) (4)
nats(N) cons(N) (5)
zprimes sieve(nats(s(s(0)))) (6)

1.1 R is empty

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