Dependency Pair Analysis



R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

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

Furthermore, R contains one SCC.

Dependency Pairs:

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


Rules:


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





The following dependency pairs can be strictly oriented:

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


Additionally, the following rules can be oriented:

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


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

resulting in one new DP problem.

Remaining Obligation(s)




The following remains to be proven:
Dependency Pairs:

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


Rules:


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