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:

*(x, *(y, z)) → *(otimes(x, y), z)
*(1, y) → y
*(+(x, y), z) → oplus(*(x, z), *(y, z))
*(x, oplus(y, z)) → oplus(*(x, y), *(x, z))

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:

*¹(x, *(y, z)) → *¹(otimes(x, y), z)
*¹(+(x, y), z) → *¹(x, z)
*¹(+(x, y), z) → *¹(y, z)
*¹(x, oplus(y, z)) → *¹(x, y)
*¹(x, oplus(y, z)) → *¹(x, z)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

*(x, *(y, z)) → *(otimes(x, y), z)
*(1, y) → y
*(+(x, y), z) → oplus(*(x, z), *(y, z))
*(x, oplus(y, z)) → oplus(*(x, y), *(x, z))

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

(3) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04].

The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.

*¹(x, *(y, z)) → *¹(otimes(x, y), z)
*¹(x, oplus(y, z)) → *¹(x, y)
*¹(x, oplus(y, z)) → *¹(x, z)

The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Polynomial interpretation [POLO]:

POL(*(x₁, x₂)) = 1 + x₁ + x₂   
POL(*¹(x₁, x₂)) = x₂   
POL(+(x₁, x₂)) = 0   
POL(oplus(x₁, x₂)) = 1 + x₁ + x₂   
POL(otimes(x₁, x₂)) = 0   

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented: none

The TRS P consists of the following rules:

*¹(+(x, y), z) → *¹(x, z)
*¹(+(x, y), z) → *¹(y, z)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

*(x, *(y, z)) → *(otimes(x, y), z)
*(1, y) → y
*(+(x, y), z) → oplus(*(x, z), *(y, z))
*(x, oplus(y, z)) → oplus(*(x, y), *(x, z))

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.

*¹(+(x, y), z) → *¹(x, z)
*¹(+(x, y), z) → *¹(y, z)

The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Polynomial interpretation [POLO]:

POL(*¹(x₁, x₂)) = x₁   
POL(+(x₁, x₂)) = 1 + x₁ + x₂   

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented: none

(6) Obligation:

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

*(x, *(y, z)) → *(otimes(x, y), z)
*(1, y) → y
*(+(x, y), z) → oplus(*(x, z), *(y, z))
*(x, oplus(y, z)) → oplus(*(x, y), *(x, z))

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.
