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:

admit(x, nil) → nil
admit(x, .(u, .(v, .(w, z)))) → cond(=(sum(x, u, v), w), .(u, .(v, .(w, admit(carry(x, u, v), z)))))
cond(true, y) → y

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:

ADMIT(x, .(u, .(v, .(w, z)))) → COND(=(sum(x, u, v), w), .(u, .(v, .(w, admit(carry(x, u, v), z)))))
ADMIT(x, .(u, .(v, .(w, z)))) → ADMIT(carry(x, u, v), z)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

admit(x, nil) → nil
admit(x, .(u, .(v, .(w, z)))) → cond(=(sum(x, u, v), w), .(u, .(v, .(w, admit(carry(x, u, v), z)))))
cond(true, y) → y

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:

ADMIT(x, .(u, .(v, .(w, z)))) → ADMIT(carry(x, u, v), z)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

admit(x, nil) → nil
admit(x, .(u, .(v, .(w, z)))) → cond(=(sum(x, u, v), w), .(u, .(v, .(w, admit(carry(x, u, v), z)))))
cond(true, y) → y

Q is empty.
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.

ADMIT(x, .(u, .(v, .(w, z)))) → ADMIT(carry(x, u, v), z)

The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: SCNP Order with the following components:
Level mapping:
Top level AFS:
ADMIT(x0, x1, x2)  =  ADMIT(x2)

Tags:
ADMIT has argument tags [3,1,0] and root tag 0

Comparison: MAX
Underlying order for the size change arcs and the rules of R:
Combined order from the following AFS and order.
ADMIT(x1, x2)  =  ADMIT(x1, x2)
.(x1, x2)  =  .(x2)
w  =  w
carry(x1, x2, x3)  =  carry(x1, x2, x3)

Lexicographic path order with status [LPO].
Quasi-Precedence:

ADMIT₂ > [.₁, w, carry₃]

Status:

ADMIT₂: [1,2]
.₁: [1]
w: []
carry₃: [3,2,1]

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented: none

(6) Obligation:

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

admit(x, nil) → nil
admit(x, .(u, .(v, .(w, z)))) → cond(=(sum(x, u, v), w), .(u, .(v, .(w, admit(carry(x, u, v), z)))))
cond(true, y) → y

Q is empty.
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
