0.13/0.86	
0.13/0.86	Using the transformations described in [Kop11], this system can be brought in a form without leading free variables in the left-hand side, and where the left-hand side of a variable is always a functional term or application headed by a functional term.
0.13/0.86	
0.13/0.86	We now transform the resulting AFS into an AFSM by replacing all free variables by meta-variables (with arity 0).  This leads to the following AFSM:

0.13/0.86	Symbol ~AP1 is an encoding for application that is only used in innocuous ways.  We can simplify the program (without losing non-termination) by removing it.  This gives:

0.13/0.86	We use rule removal, following [Kop12, Theorem 2.23].
0.13/0.86	
0.13/0.86	This gives the following requirements (possibly using Theorems 2.25 and 2.26 in [Kop12]):

0.13/0.86	We orient these requirements with a polynomial interpretation in the natural numbers.
