(3) TriplesToPiDPProof (SOUND transformation)

We use the technique of [LOPSTR]. With regard to the inferred argument filtering the predicates were used in the following modes:
select1_in: (f,b,f)
Transforming TRIPLES into the following Term Rewriting System:
Pi DP problem:
The TRS P consists of the following rules:

SELECT1_IN_AGA(T40, .(T13, .(T37, T38)), .(T13, .(T37, T41))) → U1_AGA(T40, T13, T37, T38, T41, select1_in_aga(T40, T38, T41))
SELECT1_IN_AGA(T40, .(T13, .(T37, T38)), .(T13, .(T37, T41))) → SELECT1_IN_AGA(T40, T38, T41)
SELECT1_IN_AGA(T78, .(T51, .(T75, T76)), .(T51, .(T75, T79))) → U2_AGA(T78, T51, T75, T76, T79, select1_in_aga(T78, T76, T79))

R is empty.
The argument filtering Pi contains the following mapping:
select1_in_aga(x1, x2, x3)  =  select1_in_aga(x2)
.(x1, x2)  =  .(x1, x2)
SELECT1_IN_AGA(x1, x2, x3)  =  SELECT1_IN_AGA(x2)
U1_AGA(x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6)  =  U1_AGA(x2, x3, x4, x6)
U2_AGA(x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6)  =  U2_AGA(x2, x3, x4, x6)

We have to consider all (P,R,Pi)-chains

R is empty.
The argument filtering Pi contains the following mapping:
select1_in_aga(x1, x2, x3)  =  select1_in_aga(x2)
.(x1, x2)  =  .(x1, x2)
SELECT1_IN_AGA(x1, x2, x3)  =  SELECT1_IN_AGA(x2)
U1_AGA(x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6)  =  U1_AGA(x2, x3, x4, x6)
U2_AGA(x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6)  =  U2_AGA(x2, x3, x4, x6)

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

(9) QDPSizeChangeProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

By using the subterm criterion [SUBTERM_CRITERION] together with the size-change analysis [AAECC05] we have proven that there are no infinite chains for this DP problem.

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

  • SELECT1_IN_AGA(.(T13, .(T37, T38))) → SELECT1_IN_AGA(T38)
    The graph contains the following edges 1 > 1

(10) YES
