Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by NaTT @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Dependency Pair Transformation

The following set of initial dependency pairs has been identified.
+#(*(x,y),+(*(x,z),u)) +#(*(x,+(y,z)),u) (4)
+#(x,+(y,z)) +#(x,y) (5)
+#(*(x,y),+(*(x,z),u)) +#(y,z) (6)
+#(*(x,y),+(x,z)) +#(y,z) (7)
+#(x,+(y,z)) +#(+(x,y),z) (8)

1.1 Dependency Graph Processor

The dependency pairs are split into 1 component.
