Input (TPDB TRS_Standard/Various_04/27)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

g(x,a,b) g(b,b,a) (1)

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(a) = 1 weight(a) = 1
prec(b) = 0 weight(b) = 1
prec(g) = 2 weight(g) = 0
all of the following rules can be deleted.
g(x,a,b) g(b,b,a) (1)

1.1 R is empty

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