(0) Obligation:

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

f(a, X) → f(X, X)
ca
cb

Q is empty.

(1) DependencyPairsProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

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

(2) Obligation:

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

F(a, X) → F(X, X)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

f(a, X) → f(X, X)
ca
cb

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

(3) 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(a, X) evaluates to t =F(X, X)

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




Rewriting sequence

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