Termination w.r.t. Q of the following Term Rewriting System could not be shown:

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

f(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x) → f(x, f(x, a))

Q is empty.

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

f(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x) → f(x, f(x, a))

Q is empty.

The TRS is overlay and locally confluent. By [15] we can switch to innermost.

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

f(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x) → f(x, f(x, a))

The set Q consists of the following terms:

f(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x0)


Using Dependency Pairs [1,13] we result in the following initial DP problem:
Q DP problem:
The TRS P consists of the following rules:

F(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x) → F(x, f(x, a))
F(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x) → F(x, a)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

f(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x) → f(x, f(x, a))

The set Q consists of the following terms:

f(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x0)

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

F(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x) → F(x, a)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

The set Q consists of the following terms:

f(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x0)

We have to consider all minimal (P,Q,R)-chains.
We use the reduction pair processor [13].


The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.


F(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x) → F(x, a)
The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.

F(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x) → F(x, f(x, a))
Used ordering: Combined order from the following AFS and order.
F(x1, x2)  =  F(x1, x2)
f(x1, x2)  =  f
a  =  a

Recursive Path Order [2].
Precedence:
[F2, f] > a


The following usable rules [14] were oriented:

f(f(f(a, f(a, a)), a), x) → f(x, f(x, a))
