Term Rewriting System R:

Dependency Pair Analysis



R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

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

Furthermore, R contains one SCC.

Narrowing Transformation


Dependency Pairs:

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


Rule:


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





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

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

Remaining Obligation(s)




The following remains to be proven:
Dependency Pair:

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


Rule:


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