The TRS R consists of the following rules:

g(A) → A
g(B) → B
g(C) → B
g(C) → C

Q is empty.
We have to consider all minimal (P,Q,R)-chains.
The TRS P is empty. Hence, there is no (P,Q,R) chain.

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

FOLD(t, x, s(n)) → FOLD(t, x, n)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

g(A) → A
g(B) → A
g(B) → B
g(C) → A
g(C) → B
g(C) → C
foldB(t, 0) → t
foldB(t, s(n)) → f(foldB(t, n), B)
foldC(t, 0) → t
foldC(t, s(n)) → f(foldC(t, n), C)
f(t, x) → f'(t, g(x))
f'(triple(a, b, c), C) → triple(a, b, s(c))
f'(triple(a, b, c), B) → f(triple(a, b, c), A)
f'(triple(a, b, c), A) → f''(foldB(triple(s(a), 0, c), b))
f''(triple(a, b, c)) → foldC(triple(a, b, 0), c)
fold(t, x, 0) → t
fold(t, x, s(n)) → f(fold(t, x, n), x)

Q is empty.
We have to consider all minimal (P,Q,R)-chains.
We can use the usable rules and reduction pair processor [15] with the Ce-compatible extension of the polynomial order that maps every function symbol to the sum of its argument. Then, we can delete all non-usable rules [17] from R.

R is empty.
Q is empty.
We have to consider all minimal (P,Q,R)-chains.
By using the subterm criterion [20] together with the size-change analysis [32] 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:
