Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by AProVE @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Dependency Pair Transformation

The following set of initial dependency pairs has been identified.
f#(f(x,a),a) f#(f(f(x,a),f(a,a)),a) (2)
f#(f(x,a),a) f#(f(x,a),f(a,a)) (3)
f#(f(x,a),a) f#(a,a) (4)

1.1 Dependency Graph Processor

The dependency pairs are split into 0 components.
