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

a__f(f(a)) → a__f(g(f(a)))
mark(f(X)) → a__f(X)
mark(a) → a
mark(g(X)) → g(mark(X))
a__f(X) → f(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:

A__F(f(a)) → A__F(g(f(a)))
MARK(f(X)) → A__F(X)
MARK(g(X)) → MARK(X)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

a__f(f(a)) → a__f(g(f(a)))
mark(f(X)) → a__f(X)
mark(a) → a
mark(g(X)) → g(mark(X))
a__f(X) → f(X)

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 2 less nodes.

(4) Obligation:

Q DP problem:
The TRS P consists of the following rules:

MARK(g(X)) → MARK(X)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

a__f(f(a)) → a__f(g(f(a)))
mark(f(X)) → a__f(X)
mark(a) → a
mark(g(X)) → g(mark(X))
a__f(X) → f(X)

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

(5) 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:
g(x1)  =  g(x1)

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

  • MARK(g(X)) → MARK(X) (allowed arguments on rhs = {1})
    The graph contains the following edges 1 > 1

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