Q is empty.

(1) Overlay + Local Confluence (EQUIVALENT transformation)

The TRS is overlay and locally confluent. By [NOC] we can switch to innermost.

(2) Obligation:

Q restricted rewrite system:
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

app(app(iterate, f), x) → app(app(cons, x), app(app(iterate, f), app(f, x)))

The set Q consists of the following terms:

app(app(iterate, x0), x1)

(3) DependencyPairsProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

Using Dependency Pairs [AG00,LPAR04] we result in the following initial DP problem.

(4) Obligation:

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

APP(app(iterate, f), x) → APP(app(cons, x), app(app(iterate, f), app(f, x)))
APP(app(iterate, f), x) → APP(cons, x)
APP(app(iterate, f), x) → APP(app(iterate, f), app(f, x))
APP(app(iterate, f), x) → APP(f, x)

app(app(iterate, f), x) → app(app(cons, x), app(app(iterate, f), app(f, x)))

The set Q consists of the following terms:

app(app(iterate, x0), x1)

APP(app(iterate, f), x) → APP(f, x)
APP(app(iterate, f), x) → APP(app(iterate, f), app(f, x))

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

app(app(iterate, f), x) → app(app(cons, x), app(app(iterate, f), app(f, x)))

The set Q consists of the following terms:

app(app(iterate, x0), x1)

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

(7) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04].


The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.


APP(app(iterate, f), x) → APP(f, x)
The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Combined order from the following AFS and order.
APP(x1, x2)  =  x1
app(x1, x2)  =  app(x2)
iterate  =  iterate

Knuth-Bendix order [KBO] with precedence:
trivial

and weight map:

dummyConstant=1
app_1=1

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented: none

(8) Obligation:

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

APP(app(iterate, f), x) → APP(app(iterate, f), app(f, x))

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

app(app(iterate, f), x) → app(app(cons, x), app(app(iterate, f), app(f, x)))

The set Q consists of the following terms:

app(app(iterate, x0), x1)

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

(9) MNOCProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the modular non-overlap check [FROCOS05] to decrease Q to the empty set.

(10) Obligation:

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

APP(app(iterate, f), x) → APP(app(iterate, f), app(f, x))

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

app(app(iterate, f), x) → app(app(cons, x), app(app(iterate, f), app(f, x)))

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

(11) NonTerminationProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We used the non-termination processor [FROCOS05] to show that the DP problem is infinite.
Found a loop by semiunifying a rule from P directly.

s = APP(app(iterate, f), x) evaluates to t =APP(app(iterate, f), app(f, x))

Thus s starts an infinite chain as s semiunifies with t with the following substitutions:
  • Matcher: [x / app(f, x)]
  • Semiunifier: [ ]




Rewriting sequence

The DP semiunifies directly so there is only one rewrite step from APP(app(iterate, f), x) to APP(app(iterate, f), app(f, x)).
