Certification Problem
Input (TPDB SRS_Standard/Zantema_04/z058)
The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.
|
b(a(b(a(b(b(x1)))))) |
→ |
a(b(b(a(b(b(a(x1))))))) |
(1) |
Property / Task
Prove or disprove termination.Answer / Result
Yes.Proof (by ttt2 @ termCOMP 2023)
1 String Reversal
Since only unary symbols occur, one can reverse all terms and obtains the TRS
|
b(b(a(b(a(b(x1)))))) |
→ |
a(b(b(a(b(b(a(x1))))))) |

1.1.1 R is empty
There are no rules in the TRS. Hence, it is terminating.
