Term Rewriting System R: [x, y, z] *(x, +(y, z)) -> +(*(x, y), *(x, z)) Termination of R to be shown. This program has no overlaps, so it is sufficient to show innermost termination. R contains the following Dependency Pairs: *'(x, +(y, z)) -> *'(x, y) *'(x, +(y, z)) -> *'(x, z) Furthermore, R contains one SCC. SCC1: *'(x, +(y, z)) -> *'(x, z) *'(x, +(y, z)) -> *'(x, y) Removing rules from R by ordering and analyzing Dependency Pairs, Usable Rules, and Usable Equations. This is possible by using the following (C_E-compatible) Polynomial ordering. Polynomial interpretation: POL(*'(x_1, x_2)) = 1 + x_1 + x_2 POL(+(x_1, x_2)) = 1 + x_1 + x_2 The following Dependency Pairs can be deleted: *'(x, +(y, z)) -> *'(x, z) *'(x, +(y, z)) -> *'(x, y) This transformation is resulting in no new subcycles. Termination of R successfully shown. Duration: 0.432 seconds.
