Certification Problem

Input (TPDB TRS_Standard/Der95/27)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

h(f(x),y) f(g(x,y)) (1)
g(x,y) h(x,y) (2)

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by ttt2 @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Rule Removal

Using the Knuth Bendix order with w0 = 1 and the following precedence and weight functions
prec(g) = 2 weight(g) = 0
prec(h) = 1 weight(h) = 0
prec(f) = 0 weight(f) = 2
all of the following rules can be deleted.
h(f(x),y) f(g(x,y)) (1)
g(x,y) h(x,y) (2)

1.1 R is empty

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