(0) Obligation:

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

f(g(a)) → a
f(f(x)) → b
g(x) → f(g(x))

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:

G(x) → F(g(x))
G(x) → G(x)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

f(g(a)) → a
f(f(x)) → b
g(x) → f(g(x))

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

(3) DependencyGraphProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

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

(4) Obligation:

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

G(x) → G(x)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

f(g(a)) → a
f(f(x)) → b
g(x) → f(g(x))

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