Certification Problem

Input (TPDB TRS_Standard/Transformed_CSR_04/Ex4_Zan97_FR)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

f(X) cons(X,n__f(n__g(X))) (1)
g(0) s(0) (2)
g(s(X)) s(s(g(X))) (3)
sel(0,cons(X,Y)) X (4)
sel(s(X),cons(Y,Z)) sel(X,activate(Z)) (5)
f(X) n__f(X) (6)
g(X) n__g(X) (7)
activate(n__f(X)) f(activate(X)) (8)
activate(n__g(X)) g(activate(X)) (9)
activate(X) X (10)

Property / Task

Prove or disprove termination.

Answer / Result

Yes.

1 Rule Removal

Using the
prec(f) = 3 stat(f) = mul
prec(cons) = 1 stat(cons) = mul
prec(n__f) = 0 stat(n__f) = mul
prec(n__g) = 2 stat(n__g) = mul
prec(g) = 6 stat(g) = mul
prec(0) = 4 stat(0) = mul
prec(s) = 5 stat(s) = mul
prec(sel) = 8 stat(sel) = lex
prec(activate) = 7 stat(activate) = mul

π(f) = [1]
π(cons) = [1,2]
π(n__f) = [1]
π(n__g) = [1]
π(g) = [1]
π(0) = []
π(s) = [1]
π(sel) = [1,2]
π(activate) = [1]

all of the following rules can be deleted.
f(X) cons(X,n__f(n__g(X))) (1)
g(0) s(0) (2)
g(s(X)) s(s(g(X))) (3)
sel(0,cons(X,Y)) X (4)
sel(s(X),cons(Y,Z)) sel(X,activate(Z)) (5)
f(X) n__f(X) (6)
g(X) n__g(X) (7)
activate(n__f(X)) f(activate(X)) (8)
activate(n__g(X)) g(activate(X)) (9)
activate(X) X (10)

1.1 R is empty

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