Termination proof

1: switching to dependency pairs

a#( a( x ) )	→	a#( b( a( x ) ) )
a#( a( x ) )	→	a#( x )

1.1: dependency graph processor

The dependency pairs are split into 1 component(s).

• The 1st component contains the pair(s)

  a#( a( x ) )

  →

  a#( x )

  1.1.1: reduction pair processor

  Using the following reduction pair

  Linear polynomial interpretation over the naturals

  [a (x1) ]	=	2 x1 + 2
  [b (x1) ]	=	1
  [a# (x1) ]	=	3 x1
  [f(x1, ..., xn)]	=	x1 + ... + xn + 1	for all other symbols f of arity n

  one remains with the following pair(s).

  none

  1.1.1.1: P is empty

  All dependency pairs have been removed.
