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

f(x) → g(f(x))
g(f(x)) → x
g(x) → a

Q is empty.

(1) QTRSRRRProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

Used ordering:
Polynomial interpretation [POLO]:

POL(a) = 0   
POL(f(x1)) = 1 + x1   
POL(g(x1)) = x1   
With this ordering the following rules can be removed by the rule removal processor [LPAR04] because they are oriented strictly:

g(f(x)) → x


(2) Obligation:

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

f(x) → g(f(x))
g(x) → a

Q is empty.

(3) Overlay + Local Confluence (EQUIVALENT transformation)

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

(4) Obligation:

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

f(x) → g(f(x))
g(x) → a

The set Q consists of the following terms:

f(x0)
g(x0)

(5) DependencyPairsProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

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

(6) Obligation:

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

F(x) → G(f(x))
F(x) → F(x)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

f(x) → g(f(x))
g(x) → a

The set Q consists of the following terms:

f(x0)
g(x0)

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

(7) DependencyGraphProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

The approximation of the Dependency Graph [LPAR04,FROCOS05,EDGSTAR] contains 1 SCC with 1 less node.

(8) Obligation:

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

F(x) → F(x)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

f(x) → g(f(x))
g(x) → a

The set Q consists of the following terms:

f(x0)
g(x0)

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

(9) UsableRulesProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

As all Q-normal forms are R-normal forms we are in the innermost case. Hence, by the usable rules processor [LPAR04] we can delete all non-usable rules [FROCOS05] from R.

(10) Obligation:

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

F(x) → F(x)

R is empty.
The set Q consists of the following terms:

f(x0)
g(x0)

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

(11) QReductionProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We deleted the following terms from Q as each root-symbol of these terms does neither occur in P nor in R.[THIEMANN].

f(x0)
g(x0)

(12) Obligation:

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

F(x) → F(x)

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

(13) 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 = F(x) evaluates to t =F(x)

Thus s starts an infinite chain as s semiunifies with t with the following substitutions:
  • Matcher: [ ]
  • Semiunifier: [ ]




Rewriting sequence

The DP semiunifies directly so there is only one rewrite step from F(x) to F(x).
