Termination w.r.t. Q of the given QTRS could be proven:

(0) Obligation:

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

D(t) → 1
D(constant) → 0
D(+(x, y)) → +(D(x), D(y))
D(*(x, y)) → +(*(y, D(x)), *(x, D(y)))
D(-(x, y)) → -(D(x), D(y))

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:

D(t) → 1
D(constant) → 0
D(+(x, y)) → +(D(x), D(y))
D(*(x, y)) → +(*(y, D(x)), *(x, D(y)))
D(-(x, y)) → -(D(x), D(y))

The set Q consists of the following terms:

D(t)
D(constant)
D(+(x0, x1))
D(*(x0, x1))
D(-(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:

D¹(+(x, y)) → D¹(x)
D¹(+(x, y)) → D¹(y)
D¹(*(x, y)) → D¹(x)
D¹(*(x, y)) → D¹(y)
D¹(-(x, y)) → D¹(x)
D¹(-(x, y)) → D¹(y)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

D(t) → 1
D(constant) → 0
D(+(x, y)) → +(D(x), D(y))
D(*(x, y)) → +(*(y, D(x)), *(x, D(y)))
D(-(x, y)) → -(D(x), D(y))

The set Q consists of the following terms:

D(t)
D(constant)
D(+(x0, x1))
D(*(x0, x1))
D(-(x0, x1))

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

(5) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04].

The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.

D¹(+(x, y)) → D¹(x)
D¹(+(x, y)) → D¹(y)
D¹(*(x, y)) → D¹(x)
D¹(*(x, y)) → D¹(y)
D¹(-(x, y)) → D¹(x)
D¹(-(x, y)) → D¹(y)

The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Recursive Path Order [RPO].
Precedence:

t > [D₁, 1] > [D^1₁, +₂, *₂, -₂]
[constant, 0] > [D^1₁, +₂, *₂, -₂]

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented:

D(t) → 1
D(constant) → 0
D(+(x, y)) → +(D(x), D(y))
D(*(x, y)) → +(*(y, D(x)), *(x, D(y)))
D(-(x, y)) → -(D(x), D(y))

(6) Obligation:

Q DP problem:
P is empty.
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

D(t) → 1
D(constant) → 0
D(+(x, y)) → +(D(x), D(y))
D(*(x, y)) → +(*(y, D(x)), *(x, D(y)))
D(-(x, y)) → -(D(x), D(y))

The set Q consists of the following terms:

D(t)
D(constant)
D(+(x0, x1))
D(*(x0, x1))
D(-(x0, x1))

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

(7) PisEmptyProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

The TRS P is empty. Hence, there is no (P,Q,R) chain.

(8) TRUE
