Certification Problem

Input (COPS 84)

We consider the TRS containing the following rules:

a b (1)
f(a) g(a) (2)
f(b) g(b) (3)

The underlying signature is as follows:

{a/0, b/0, f/1, g/1}

Property / Task

Prove or disprove confluence.

Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by ACP @ CoCo 2020)

1 Strongly closed

Confluence is proven since the TRS is strongly closed. The joins can be performed using 2 step(s).
