Input (TPDB SRS_Standard/Trafo_06/un09)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

b(b(b(a(b(x1))))) b(a(b(b(a(b(x1)))))) (1)
b(a(b(b(x1)))) b(b(a(b(a(b(x1)))))) (2)
b(a(b(a(a(b(b(x1))))))) b(a(a(b(a(a(b(b(b(a(b(x1))))))))))) (3)

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by AProVE @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Dependency Pair Transformation

The following set of initial dependency pairs has been identified.
b#(b(b(a(b(x1))))) b#(a(b(b(a(b(x1)))))) (4)
b#(a(b(b(x1)))) b#(b(a(b(a(b(x1)))))) (5)
b#(a(b(b(x1)))) b#(a(b(a(b(x1))))) (6)
b#(a(b(b(x1)))) b#(a(b(x1))) (7)
b#(a(b(a(a(b(b(x1))))))) b#(a(a(b(a(a(b(b(b(a(b(x1))))))))))) (8)
b#(a(b(a(a(b(b(x1))))))) b#(a(a(b(b(b(a(b(x1)))))))) (9)
b#(a(b(a(a(b(b(x1))))))) b#(b(b(a(b(x1))))) (10)
b#(a(b(a(a(b(b(x1))))))) b#(b(a(b(x1)))) (11)
b#(a(b(a(a(b(b(x1))))))) b#(a(b(x1))) (12)

1.1 Dependency Graph Processor

The dependency pairs are split into 1 component.
