We are asked to determine termination of the following first-order TRS. 2nd : [o] --> o activate : [o] --> o cons : [o * o] --> o cons1 : [o * o] --> o from : [o] --> o n!6220!6220from : [o] --> o s : [o] --> o 2nd(cons1(X, cons(Y, Z))) => Y 2nd(cons(X, Y)) => 2nd(cons1(X, activate(Y))) from(X) => cons(X, n!6220!6220from(s(X))) from(X) => n!6220!6220from(X) activate(n!6220!6220from(X)) => from(X) activate(X) => X We use the dependency pair framework as described in [Kop12, Ch. 6/7], with static dependency pairs (see [KusIsoSakBla09] and the adaptation for AFSMs in [Kop12, Ch. 7.8]). We thus obtain the following dependency pair problem (P_0, R_0, minimal, formative): Dependency Pairs P_0: 0] 2nd#(cons(X, Y)) =#> 2nd#(cons1(X, activate(Y))) 1] 2nd#(cons(X, Y)) =#> activate#(Y) 2] activate#(n!6220!6220from(X)) =#> from#(X) Rules R_0: 2nd(cons1(X, cons(Y, Z))) => Y 2nd(cons(X, Y)) => 2nd(cons1(X, activate(Y))) from(X) => cons(X, n!6220!6220from(s(X))) from(X) => n!6220!6220from(X) activate(n!6220!6220from(X)) => from(X) activate(X) => X Thus, the original system is terminating if (P_0, R_0, minimal, formative) is finite. We consider the dependency pair problem (P_0, R_0, minimal, formative). We place the elements of P in a dependency graph approximation G (see e.g. [Kop12, Thm. 7.27, 7.29], as follows: * 0 : * 1 : 2 * 2 : This graph has no strongly connected components. By [Kop12, Thm. 7.31], this implies finiteness of the dependency pair problem. As all dependency pair problems were succesfully simplified with sound (and complete) processors until nothing remained, we conclude termination. +++ Citations +++ [Kop12] C. Kop.
