Termination proof

1: switching to dependency pairs

f#( f( a , f( x , a ) ) , a )	→	f#( a , f( f( x , a ) , a ) )
f#( f( a , f( x , a ) ) , a )	→	f#( f( x , a ) , a )
f#( f( a , f( x , a ) ) , a )	→	f#( x , a )

1.1: dependency graph processor

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

• The 1st component contains the pair(s)

  f#( f( a , f( x , a ) ) , a )	→	f#( x , a )
  f#( f( a , f( x , a ) ) , a )	→	f#( f( x , a ) , a )

  1.1.1: reduction pair processor

  Using the following reduction pair

  Linear polynomial interpretation over the naturals

  [a]	=	3
  [f (x1, x2) ]	=	3 x1 + 2 x2 + 2
  [f# (x1, x2) ]	=	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.
