Input (TPDB SRS_Standard/Waldmann_07_size12/size-12-alpha-3-num-465)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

a(x1) b(c(b(x1))) (1)
a(b(x1)) x1 (2)
c(c(b(x1))) a(c(c(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.
a#(x1) c#(b(x1)) (4)
c#(c(b(x1))) a#(c(c(x1))) (5)
c#(c(b(x1))) c#(c(x1)) (6)
c#(c(b(x1))) c#(x1) (7)

1.1 Dependency Graph Processor

The dependency pairs are split into 1 component.
