Input (TPDB SRS_Standard/Waldmann_07_size12/size-12-alpha-3-num-106)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

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

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by matchbox @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Dependency Pair Transformation

The following set of initial dependency pairs has been identified.
c#(b(x1)) a#(x1) (4)
a#(a(b(x1))) c#(a(x1)) (5)
a#(a(b(x1))) a#(x1) (6)
a#(a(b(x1))) a#(b(c(a(x1)))) (7)

1.1 Dependency Graph Processor

The dependency pairs are split into 1 component.
