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

max(L(x)) → x
max(N(L(0), L(y))) → y
max(N(L(s(x)), L(s(y)))) → s(max(N(L(x), L(y))))
max(N(L(x), N(y, z))) → max(N(L(x), L(max(N(y, 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:

MAX(N(L(s(x)), L(s(y)))) → MAX(N(L(x), L(y)))
MAX(N(L(x), N(y, z))) → MAX(N(L(x), L(max(N(y, z)))))

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

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

MAX(N(L(s(x)), L(s(y)))) → MAX(N(L(x), L(y)))

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

max(L(x)) → x
max(N(L(0), L(y))) → y
max(N(L(s(x)), L(s(y)))) → s(max(N(L(x), L(y))))

(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:Homeomorphic Embedding Order

AFS:
L(x1)  =  x1
s(x1)  =  s(x1)
N(x1, x2)  =  x2

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

  • MAX(N(L(s(x)), L(s(y)))) → MAX(N(L(x), L(y))) (allowed arguments on rhs = {1})
    The graph contains the following edges 1 > 1

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