(6) QDPSizeChangeProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We used the following order and afs together with the size-change analysis [AAECC05] to show that there are no infinite chains for this DP problem.

Order:Combined order from the following AFS and order.
minus(x1)  =  x1
+(x1, x2)  =  +(x1, x2)
*(x1, x2)  =  *(x1, x2)

Recursive path order with status [RPO].
Quasi-Precedence:

[+2, *2]

Status:
+2: [2,1]
*2: [2,1]

AFS:
minus(x1)  =  x1
+(x1, x2)  =  +(x1, x2)
*(x1, x2)  =  *(x1, x2)

From the DPs we obtained the following set of size-change graphs:

  • MINUS(+(x, y)) → MINUS(minus(x)) (allowed arguments on rhs = {1})
    The graph contains the following edges 1 > 1

  • MINUS(+(x, y)) → MINUS(minus(minus(x))) (allowed arguments on rhs = {1})
    The graph contains the following edges 1 > 1

  • MINUS(+(x, y)) → MINUS(x) (allowed arguments on rhs = {1})
    The graph contains the following edges 1 > 1

  • MINUS(+(x, y)) → MINUS(minus(minus(y))) (allowed arguments on rhs = {1})
