Term Rewriting System R: [x] f(s(x)) -> s(s(f(p(s(x))))) f(0) -> 0 p(s(x)) -> x Termination of R to be shown. Removing the following rules from R which fullfill a polynomial ordering: f(0) -> 0 where the Polynomial interpretation: POL(s(x_1)) = x_1 POL(f(x_1)) = 2*x_1 POL(0) = 1 POL(p(x_1)) = x_1 was used. Not all Rules of R can be deleted, so we still have to regard a part of R. This program has no overlaps, so it is sufficient to show innermost termination. R contains the following Dependency Pairs: F(s(x)) -> F(p(s(x))) F(s(x)) -> P(s(x)) Furthermore, R contains one SCC. SCC1: F(s(x)) -> F(p(s(x))) On this Scc, a Rewriting SCC transformation can be performed. As a result of transforming the rule F(s(x)) -> F(p(s(x))) one new Dependency Pair is created: F(s(x)) -> F(x) The transformation is resulting in one subcycle: SCC1.Rewr1: F(s(x)) -> F(x) 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(s(x_1)) = 2 + x_1 POL(F(x_1)) = 2 + x_1 The following Dependency Pairs can be deleted: F(s(x)) -> F(x) This transformation is resulting in no new subcycles. Termination of R successfully shown. Duration: 0.495 seconds.
