Termination w.r.t. Q of the following Term Rewriting System could be proven:

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

a(a(x1)) → b(b(b(x1)))
b(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → a(a(a(x1)))

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

a(a(x1)) → b(b(b(x1)))
b(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → a(a(a(x1)))

Q is empty.

Using Dependency Pairs [1,15] we result in the following initial DP problem:
Q DP problem:
The TRS P consists of the following rules:

A(a(x1)) → B(b(x1))
B(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → A(x1)
A(a(x1)) → B(b(b(x1)))
B(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → A(a(x1))
B(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → A(a(a(x1)))
A(a(x1)) → B(x1)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

a(a(x1)) → b(b(b(x1)))
b(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → a(a(a(x1)))

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

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

A(a(x1)) → B(b(x1))
B(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → A(x1)
A(a(x1)) → B(b(b(x1)))
B(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → A(a(x1))
B(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → A(a(a(x1)))
A(a(x1)) → B(x1)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

a(a(x1)) → b(b(b(x1)))
b(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → a(a(a(x1)))

Q is empty.
We have to consider all minimal (P,Q,R)-chains.
We use the reduction pair processor [15].


The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.


A(a(x1)) → B(b(x1))
B(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → A(x1)
B(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → A(a(x1))
B(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → A(a(a(x1)))
A(a(x1)) → B(x1)
The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.

A(a(x1)) → B(b(b(x1)))
Used ordering: Polynomial interpretation [25,35]:

POL(B(x1)) = (3)x_1   
POL(a(x1)) = 4 + (3)x_1   
POL(A(x1)) = 2 + (4)x_1   
POL(b(x1)) = 2 + (2)x_1   
The value of delta used in the strict ordering is 12.
The following usable rules [17] were oriented:

b(b(b(b(b(x1))))) → a(a(a(x1)))
a(a(x1)) → b(b(b(x1)))
