Input (TPDB TRS_Outermost/Strategy_outermost_added_08/Ex4_4_Luc96b)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

f(g(X),Y) f(X,f(g(X),Y)) (1)
The evaluation strategy is outermost

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

No.

Proof (by AProVE @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Loop

The following loop proves nontermination.

t0 = f(g(X),Y)
f(X,f(g(X),Y))
= t1
where t1 = C[t0] and C = f(X,)
