(0) Obligation:

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

*(x, *(minus(y), y)) → *(minus(*(y, y)), 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:

*1(x, *(minus(y), y)) → *1(minus(*(y, y)), x)
*1(x, *(minus(y), y)) → *1(y, y)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

*(x, *(minus(y), y)) → *(minus(*(y, y)), x)

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

(3) 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:Homeomorphic Embedding Order

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

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

  • *1(x, *(minus(y), y)) → *1(minus(*(y, y)), x) (allowed arguments on rhs = {1, 2})
    The graph contains the following edges 2 > 1, 1 >= 2

  • *1(x, *(minus(y), y)) → *1(y, y) (allowed arguments on rhs = {1, 2})
    The graph contains the following edges 2 > 1, 2 > 2

We oriented the following set of usable rules [AAECC05,FROCOS05]. none
