Input (TPDB SRS_Standard/Zantema_06/01)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

a(b(x1)) b(r(x1)) (1)
r(a(x1)) d(r(x1)) (2)
r(x1) d(x1) (3)
d(a(x1)) a(a(d(x1))) (4)
d(x1) a(x1) (5)

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by ttt2 @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Rule Removal

Using the Weighted Path Order with the following precedence and status
prec(d) = 2 status(d) = [1] list-extension(d) = Lex
prec(r) = 3 status(r) = [1] list-extension(r) = Lex
prec(a) = 1 status(a) = [1] list-extension(a) = Lex
prec(b) = 0 status(b) = [1] list-extension(b) = Lex
and the following Max-polynomial interpretation
[d(x1)] = max(0, 0 + 1 · x1)
[r(x1)] = max(0, 0 + 1 · x1)
[a(x1)] = max(0, 0 + 1 · x1)
[b(x1)] = 4 + 1 · x1
all of the following rules can be deleted.
a(b(x1)) b(r(x1)) (1)
r(a(x1)) d(r(x1)) (2)
r(x1) d(x1) (3)
d(a(x1)) a(a(d(x1))) (4)
d(x1) a(x1) (5)

1.1 R is empty

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