We consider the system AotoYamada_05__Ex1SimplyTyped. Alphabet: 0 : [] --> a add : [a] --> a -> a cons : [b * c] --> c id : [] --> a -> a map : [b -> b * c] --> c nil : [] --> c s : [a] --> a Rules: id x => x add(0) => id add(s(x)) y => s(add(x) y) map(f, nil) => nil map(f, cons(x, y)) => cons(f x, map(f, y)) This AFS is converted to an AFSM simply by replacing all free variables by meta-variables (with arity 0). 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]). In order to do so, we start by eta-expanding the system, which gives: id(X) => X add(0, X) => id(X) add(s(X), Y) => s(add(X, Y)) map(F, nil) => nil map(F, cons(X, Y)) => cons(F X, map(F, Y)) We thus obtain the following dependency pair problem (P_0, R_0, static, formative): Dependency Pairs P_0: 0] add#(0, X) =#> id#(X) 1] add#(s(X), Y) =#> add#(X, Y) 2] map#(F, cons(X, Y)) =#> map#(F, Y) Rules R_0: id(X) => X add(0, X) => id(X) add(s(X), Y) => s(add(X, Y)) map(F, nil) => nil map(F, cons(X, Y)) => cons(F X, map(F, Y)) Thus, the original system is terminating if (P_0, R_0, static, formative) is finite. We consider the dependency pair problem (P_0, R_0, static, 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 : 0, 1 * 2 : 2 This graph has the following strongly connected components: P_1: add#(s(X), Y) =#> add#(X, Y) P_2: map#(F, cons(X, Y)) =#> map#(F, Y) By [Kop12, Thm. 7.31], we may replace any dependency pair problem (P_0, R_0, m, f) by (P_1, R_0, m, f) and (P_2, R_0, m, f). Thus, the original system is terminating if each of (P_1, R_0, static, formative) and (P_2, R_0, static, formative) is finite. We consider the dependency pair problem (P_2, R_0, static, formative). We will use the reduction pair processor [Kop12, Thm. 7.16]. It suffices to find a standard reduction pair [Kop12, Def. 6.69]. Thus, we must orient: map#(F, cons(X, Y)) >? map#(F, Y) id(X) >= X add(0, X) >= id(X) add(s(X), Y) >= s(add(X, Y)) map(F, nil) >= nil map(F, cons(X, Y)) >= cons(F X, map(F, Y)) We apply [Kop12, Thm. 6.75] and use the following argument functions: pi( id(X) ) = #argfun-id#(X) We orient these requirements with a polynomial interpretation in the natural numbers. The following interpretation satisfies the requirements: #argfun-id# = \y0.y0 0 = 3 add = \y0y1.3 + y1 cons = \y0y1.2 + y1 id = \y0.0 map = \G0y1.2 + y1 map# = \G0y1.y1 nil = 0 s = \y0.0 Using this interpretation, the requirements translate to: [[map#(_F0, cons(_x1, _x2))]] = 2 + x2 > x2 = [[map#(_F0, _x2)]] [[#argfun-id#(_x0)]] = x0 >= x0 = [[_x0]] [[add(0, _x0)]] = 3 + x0 >= x0 = [[#argfun-id#(_x0)]] [[add(s(_x0), _x1)]] = 3 + x1 >= 0 = [[s(add(_x0, _x1))]] [[map(_F0, nil)]] = 2 >= 0 = [[nil]] [[map(_F0, cons(_x1, _x2))]] = 4 + x2 >= 4 + x2 = [[cons(_F0 _x1, map(_F0, _x2))]] By the observations in [Kop12, Sec. 6.6], this reduction pair suffices; we may thus replace a dependency pair problem (P_2, R_0) by ({}, R_0). By the empty set processor [Kop12, Thm. 7.15] this problem may be immediately removed. Thus, the original system is terminating if (P_1, R_0, static, formative) is finite. We consider the dependency pair problem (P_1, R_0, static, formative). We will use the reduction pair processor [Kop12, Thm. 7.16]. It suffices to find a standard reduction pair [Kop12, Def. 6.69]. Thus, we must orient: add#(s(X), Y) >? add#(X, Y) id(X) >= X add(0, X) >= id(X) add(s(X), Y) >= s(add(X, Y)) map(F, nil) >= nil map(F, cons(X, Y)) >= cons(F X, map(F, Y)) We apply [Kop12, Thm. 6.75] and use the following argument functions: pi( id(X) ) = #argfun-id#(X) We orient these requirements with a polynomial interpretation in the natural numbers. The following interpretation satisfies the requirements: #argfun-id# = \y0.y0 0 = 3 add = \y0y1.y1 + 3y0 add# = \y0y1.y0 cons = \y0y1.3 id = \y0.0 map = \G0y1.3 + 2G0(0) + 3y1G0(y1) nil = 0 s = \y0.3 + y0 Using this interpretation, the requirements translate to: [[add#(s(_x0), _x1)]] = 3 + x0 > x0 = [[add#(_x0, _x1)]] [[#argfun-id#(_x0)]] = x0 >= x0 = [[_x0]] [[add(0, _x0)]] = 9 + x0 >= x0 = [[#argfun-id#(_x0)]] [[add(s(_x0), _x1)]] = 9 + x1 + 3x0 >= 3 + x1 + 3x0 = [[s(add(_x0, _x1))]] [[map(_F0, nil)]] = 3 + 2F0(0) >= 0 = [[nil]] [[map(_F0, cons(_x1, _x2))]] = 3 + 2F0(0) + 9F0(3) >= 3 = [[cons(_F0 _x1, map(_F0, _x2))]] By the observations in [Kop12, Sec. 6.6], this reduction pair suffices; we may thus replace a dependency pair problem (P_1, R_0) by ({}, R_0). By the empty set processor [Kop12, Thm. 7.15] this problem may be immediately removed. As all dependency pair problems were succesfully simplified with sound (and complete) processors until nothing remained, we conclude termination. +++ Citations +++ [Kop12] C. Kop.
