Input (TPDB TRS_Relative/Relative_05/rt1-2)

The relative rewrite relation R/S is considered where R is the following TRS

f(x) x (1)
g(x) x (2)

and S is the following TRS.

f(x) g(x) (3)
g(x) f(x) (4)

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by AProVE @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Rule Removal

Using the linear polynomial interpretation over the naturals
[f(x1)] = 1 + 1 · x1
[g(x1)] = 1 + 1 · x1
all of the following rules can be deleted.
f(x) x (1)
g(x) x (2)

1.1 R is empty

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