0.00/0.10	YES
0.00/0.10	We consider the system theBenchmark.
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	  Alphabet:
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	    abs : [] --> (a -> b) -> ab 
0.00/0.10	    app : [] --> ab -> a -> b 
0.00/0.10	    appBG : [] --> BGaBGb -> BGa -> BGb 
0.00/0.10	    banga : [] --> a -> BGa 
0.00/0.10	    let : [] --> BGa -> (a -> BGb) -> BGb 
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	  Rules:
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	    app (abs (/\x.f x)) y => f y 
0.00/0.10	    abs (/\x.app y x) => y 
0.00/0.10	    let (banga x) (/\y.f y) => f x 
0.00/0.10	    let x (/\y.appBG z (banga y)) => appBG z x 
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	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.
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	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:
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	  Alphabet:
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	    abs : [a -> b] --> ab 
0.00/0.10	    app : [ab * a] --> b 
0.00/0.10	    appBG : [BGaBGb * BGa] --> BGb 
0.00/0.10	    banga : [a] --> BGa 
0.00/0.10	    let : [BGa * a -> BGb] --> BGb 
0.00/0.10	    ~AP1 : [a -> b * a] --> b 
0.00/0.10	    ~AP2 : [a -> BGb * a] --> BGb 
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	  Rules:
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	    app(abs(/\x.~AP1(F, x)), X) => ~AP1(F, X) 
0.00/0.10	    abs(/\x.app(X, x)) => X 
0.00/0.10	    let(banga(X), /\x.~AP2(F, x)) => ~AP2(F, X) 
0.00/0.10	    let(X, /\x.appBG(Y, banga(x))) => appBG(Y, X) 
0.00/0.10	    app(abs(/\x.app(X, x)), Y) => app(X, Y) 
0.00/0.10	    ~AP1(F, X) => F X 
0.00/0.10	    ~AP2(F, X) => F X 
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	Symbols ~AP1, and ~AP2 are encodings for application that are only used in innocuous ways.  We can simplify the program (without losing non-termination) by removing them.
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	  Additionally, we can remove some (now-)redundant rules.  This gives:
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	  Alphabet:
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	    abs : [a -> b] --> ab 
0.00/0.10	    app : [ab * a] --> b 
0.00/0.10	    appBG : [BGaBGb * BGa] --> BGb 
0.00/0.10	    banga : [a] --> BGa 
0.00/0.10	    let : [BGa * a -> BGb] --> BGb 
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	  Rules:
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	    app(abs(/\x.X(x)), Y) => X(Y) 
0.00/0.10	    abs(/\x.app(X, x)) => X 
0.00/0.10	    let(banga(X), /\x.Y(x)) => Y(X) 
0.00/0.10	    let(X, /\x.appBG(Y, banga(x))) => appBG(Y, X) 
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	We use the dependency pair framework as described in [Kop12, Ch. 6/7], with static dependency pairs (see [KusIsoSakBla09] and the adaptation for AFSMs and accessible arguments in [Kop13]).
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	We thus obtain the following dependency pair problem (P_0, R_0, static, all):
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	  Dependency Pairs P_0:
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	  Rules R_0:
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	    app(abs(/\x.X(x)), Y) => X(Y) 
0.00/0.10	    abs(/\x.app(X, x)) => X 
0.00/0.10	    let(banga(X), /\x.Y(x)) => Y(X) 
0.00/0.10	    let(X, /\x.appBG(Y, banga(x))) => appBG(Y, X) 
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	Thus, the original system is terminating if (P_0, R_0, static, all) is finite.
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	We consider the dependency pair problem (P_0, R_0, static, all).
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	We place the elements of P in a dependency graph approximation G (see e.g. [Kop12, Thm. 7.27, 7.29], as follows:
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	This graph has no strongly connected components.  By [Kop12, Thm. 7.31], this implies finiteness of the dependency pair problem.
0.00/0.10	
0.00/0.10	As all dependency pair problems were succesfully simplified with sound (and complete) processors until nothing remained, we conclude termination.
