** BEGIN proof argument **
The following rule was generated while unfolding the analyzed TRS:
[iteration = 1] a(b(a(b(a(b(_0)))))) -> a(b(a(b(a(b(a(a(b(_0)))))))))
Let l be the left-hand side and r be the right-hand side of this rule.
Let p = epsilon, theta1 = {} and theta2 = {_0->a(a(b(_0)))}.
We have r|p = a(b(a(b(a(b(a(a(b(_0))))))))) and theta2(theta1(l)) = theta1(r|p).
Hence, the term theta1(l) = a(b(a(b(a(b(_0)))))) loops w.r.t. the analyzed TRS.

** BEGIN proof description **
## Searching for a generalized rewrite rule
(a rule whose right-hand side contains a variable
that does not occur in the left-hand side)...
No generalized rewrite rule found!

## Searching for a loop by unfolding (unfolding of variable subterms: ON)...
# Iteration 0: no loop detected, 1 unfolded rule generated.
# Iteration 1: loop detected, 1 unfolded rule generated.
Here is the successful unfolding. Let IR be the TRS under analysis.
L0 = a^#(b(a(b(_0)))) -> a^#(b(a(a(b(_0))))) is in U_IR^0.
Let p0 = [0, 0, 0].
We unfold the rule of L0 forwards at position p0
with the rule a(b(a(b(_0)))) -> b(a(b(a(a(b(_0)))))).
==> L1 = a^#(b(a(b(a(b(_0)))))) -> a^#(b(a(b(a(b(a(a(b(_0))))))))) is in U_IR^1.
