Input (TPDB TRS_Standard/SK90/2.04)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

f(+(x,0)) f(x) (1)
+(x,+(y,z)) +(+(x,y),z) (2)

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)] = 2 · x1
[+(x1, x2)] = 1 + 1 · x1 + 2 · x2
[0] = 0
all of the following rules can be deleted.
f(+(x,0)) f(x) (1)
+(x,+(y,z)) +(+(x,y),z) (2)

1.1 R is empty

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