   R
     ↳Dependency Pair Analysis



R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

F(f(a, b), x) -> F(a, f(a, x))
F(f(a, b), x) -> F(a, x)
F(f(b, a), x) -> F(b, f(b, x))
F(f(b, a), x) -> F(b, x)
F(x, f(y, z)) -> F(f(x, y), z)
F(x, f(y, z)) -> F(x, y)

Furthermore, R contains one SCC.

     ↳DPs
       →DP Problem 1
         ↳Polynomial Ordering


Dependency Pairs:

F(f(b, a), x) -> F(b, x)
F(f(b, a), x) -> F(b, f(b, x))
F(x, f(y, z)) -> F(x, y)
F(f(a, b), x) -> F(a, x)
F(x, f(y, z)) -> F(f(x, y), z)
F(f(a, b), x) -> F(a, f(a, x))


Rules:


f(f(a, b), x) -> f(a, f(a, x))
f(f(b, a), x) -> f(b, f(b, x))
f(x, f(y, z)) -> f(f(x, y), z)


Strategy:

innermost




The following dependency pairs can be strictly oriented:

F(f(b, a), x) -> F(b, x)
F(x, f(y, z)) -> F(x, y)
F(f(a, b), x) -> F(a, x)


Additionally, the following usable rules for innermost can be oriented:

f(f(a, b), x) -> f(a, f(a, x))
f(f(b, a), x) -> f(b, f(b, x))
f(x, f(y, z)) -> f(f(x, y), z)


Used ordering: Polynomial ordering with Polynomial interpretation:
  POL(b)=  0  
  POL(a)=  0  
  POL(f(x1, x2))=  1 + x1 + x2  
  POL(F(x1, x2))=  x1 + x2  

resulting in one new DP problem.

             ↳Instantiation Transformation


Dependency Pairs:

F(f(b, a), x) -> F(b, f(b, x))
F(x, f(y, z)) -> F(f(x, y), z)
F(f(a, b), x) -> F(a, f(a, x))


Rules:


f(f(a, b), x) -> f(a, f(a, x))
f(f(b, a), x) -> f(b, f(b, x))
f(x, f(y, z)) -> f(f(x, y), z)


Strategy:

innermost




On this DP problem, an Instantiation SCC transformation can be performed.
As a result of transforming the rule

F(x, f(y, z)) -> F(f(x, y), z)
two new Dependency Pairs are created:

F(a, f(y', z')) -> F(f(a, y'), z')
F(b, f(y', z')) -> F(f(b, y'), z')

The transformation is resulting in one new DP problem:

               →DP Problem 3
                 ↳Remaining Obligation(s)




The following remains to be proven:
Dependency Pairs:

F(a, f(y', z')) -> F(f(a, y'), z')
F(f(a, b), x) -> F(a, f(a, x))
F(b, f(y', z')) -> F(f(b, y'), z')
F(f(b, a), x) -> F(b, f(b, x))


Rules:


f(f(a, b), x) -> f(a, f(a, x))
f(f(b, a), x) -> f(b, f(b, x))
f(x, f(y, z)) -> f(f(x, y), z)
