(3) TriplesToPiDPProof (SOUND transformation)

We use the technique of [DT09]. With regard to the inferred argument filtering the predicates were used in the following modes:
duplicateA_in: (b,f)
Transforming TRIPLES into the following Term Rewriting System:
Pi DP problem:
The TRS P consists of the following rules:

DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(.(X1, .(X2, X3)), .(X1, .(X1, .(X2, .(X2, X4))))) → U1_GA(X1, X2, X3, X4, duplicateA_in_ga(X3, X4))
DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(.(X1, .(X2, X3)), .(X1, .(X1, .(X2, .(X2, X4))))) → DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(X3, X4)

R is empty.
The argument filtering Pi contains the following mapping:
duplicateA_in_ga(x1, x2)  =  duplicateA_in_ga(x1)
.(x1, x2)  =  .(x1, x2)
DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(x1, x2)  =  DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(x1)
U1_GA(x1, x2, x3, x4, x5)  =  U1_GA(x1, x2, x3, x5)

We have to consider all (P,R,Pi)-chains

Infinitary Constructor Rewriting Termination of PiDP implies Termination of TRIPLES

(4) Obligation:

Pi DP problem:
The TRS P consists of the following rules:

DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(.(X1, .(X2, X3)), .(X1, .(X1, .(X2, .(X2, X4))))) → U1_GA(X1, X2, X3, X4, duplicateA_in_ga(X3, X4))
DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(.(X1, .(X2, X3)), .(X1, .(X1, .(X2, .(X2, X4))))) → DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(X3, X4)

R is empty.
The argument filtering Pi contains the following mapping:
duplicateA_in_ga(x1, x2)  =  duplicateA_in_ga(x1)
.(x1, x2)  =  .(x1, x2)
DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(x1, x2)  =  DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(x1)
U1_GA(x1, x2, x3, x4, x5)  =  U1_GA(x1, x2, x3, x5)

We have to consider all (P,R,Pi)-chains

(5) DependencyGraphProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

The approximation of the Dependency Graph [LOPSTR] contains 1 SCC with 1 less node.

(6) Obligation:

Pi DP problem:
The TRS P consists of the following rules:

DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(.(X1, .(X2, X3)), .(X1, .(X1, .(X2, .(X2, X4))))) → DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(X3, X4)

R is empty.
The argument filtering Pi contains the following mapping:
.(x1, x2)  =  .(x1, x2)
DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(x1, x2)  =  DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(x1)

We have to consider all (P,R,Pi)-chains

(7) PiDPToQDPProof (SOUND transformation)

Transforming (infinitary) constructor rewriting Pi-DP problem [LOPSTR] into ordinary QDP problem [LPAR04] by application of Pi.

(8) Obligation:

Q DP problem:
The TRS P consists of the following rules:

DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(.(X1, .(X2, X3))) → DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(X3)

R is empty.
Q is empty.
We have to consider all (P,Q,R)-chains.

(9) QDPSizeChangeProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

By using the subterm criterion [SUBTERM_CRITERION] together with the size-change analysis [AAECC05] we have proven that there are no infinite chains for this DP problem.

From the DPs we obtained the following set of size-change graphs:

  • DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(.(X1, .(X2, X3))) → DUPLICATEA_IN_GA(X3)
    The graph contains the following edges 1 > 1

(10) YES
