Term Rewriting System R:
[x, y, z]
*(x, *(y, z)) -> *(*(x, y), z)
*(x, x) -> x

Innermost Termination of R to be shown.



   R
Dependency Pair Analysis



R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

*'(x, *(y, z)) -> *'(*(x, y), z)
*'(x, *(y, z)) -> *'(x, y)

Furthermore, R contains one SCC.

DPs
       →DP Problem 1
Usable Rules (Innermost)


Dependency Pair:

*'(x, *(y, z)) -> *'(x, y)


Rules:


*(x, *(y, z)) -> *(*(x, y), z)
*(x, x) -> x


Strategy:

innermost




As we are in the innermost case, we can delete all 2 non-usable-rules.

Size-Change Principle


Dependency Pair:

*'(x, *(y, z)) -> *'(x, y)


Rule:

none


Strategy:

innermost




We number the DPs as follows:
  1. *'(x, *(y, z)) -> *'(x, y)
and get the following Size-Change Graph(s):
{1} , {1}
1=1
2>2

which lead(s) to this/these maximal multigraph(s):
{1} , {1}
1=1
2>2

DP: empty set
Oriented Rules: none

We used the order Homeomorphic Embedding Order with Non-Strict Precedence.
trivial

with Argument Filtering System:
*(x1, x2) -> *(x1, x2)

We obtain no new DP problems.
