Term Rewriting System R:
[x]
a(f, a(f, x)) -> a(x, g)
a(x, g) -> a(f, a(g, a(f, x)))

Termination of R to be shown.



   R
Dependency Pair Analysis



R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

A(f, a(f, x)) -> A(x, g)
A(x, g) -> A(f, a(g, a(f, x)))
A(x, g) -> A(g, a(f, x))
A(x, g) -> A(f, x)

Furthermore, R contains one SCC.

DPs
       →DP Problem 1
Forward Instantiation Transformation


Dependency Pairs:

A(x, g) -> A(f, x)
A(x, g) -> A(g, a(f, x))
A(x, g) -> A(f, a(g, a(f, x)))
A(f, a(f, x)) -> A(x, g)


Rules:


a(f, a(f, x)) -> a(x, g)
a(x, g) -> a(f, a(g, a(f, x)))





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

A(x, g) -> A(g, a(f, x))
no new Dependency Pairs are created.
The transformation is resulting in one new DP problem:



   R
DPs
       →DP Problem 1
FwdInst
           →DP Problem 2
Remaining Obligation(s)




The following remains to be proven:
Dependency Pairs:

A(x, g) -> A(f, a(g, a(f, x)))
A(f, a(f, x)) -> A(x, g)
A(x, g) -> A(f, x)


Rules:


a(f, a(f, x)) -> a(x, g)
a(x, g) -> a(f, a(g, a(f, x)))
