We consider the system Applicative_first_order_05__#3.16. Alphabet: 0 : [] --> a cons : [c * d] --> d false : [] --> b filter : [c -> b * d] --> d filter2 : [b * c -> b * c * d] --> d map : [c -> c * d] --> d nil : [] --> d plus : [a * a] --> a s : [a] --> a times : [a * a] --> a true : [] --> b Rules: times(x, 0) => 0 times(x, s(y)) => plus(times(x, y), x) plus(x, 0) => x plus(0, x) => x plus(x, s(y)) => s(plus(x, y)) plus(s(x), y) => s(plus(x, y)) map(f, nil) => nil map(f, cons(x, y)) => cons(f x, map(f, y)) filter(f, nil) => nil filter(f, cons(x, y)) => filter2(f x, f, x, y) filter2(true, f, x, y) => cons(x, filter(f, y)) filter2(false, f, x, y) => filter(f, y) This AFS is converted to an AFSM simply by replacing all free variables by meta-variables (with arity 0). We observe that the rules contain a first-order subset: times(X, 0) => 0 times(X, s(Y)) => plus(times(X, Y), X) plus(X, 0) => X plus(0, X) => X plus(X, s(Y)) => s(plus(X, Y)) plus(s(X), Y) => s(plus(X, Y)) Moreover, the system is finitely branching. Thus, by [Kop12, Thm. 7.55], we may omit all first-order dependency pairs from the dependency pair problem (DP(R), R) if this first-order part is Ce-terminating when seen as a many-sorted first-order TRS. According to the external first-order termination prover, this system is indeed Ce-terminating: || proof of resources/system.trs || # AProVE Commit ID: d84c10301d352dfd14de2104819581f4682260f5 fuhs 20130616 || || || Termination w.r.t.

We thus obtain the following dependency pair problem (P_0, R_0, computable, formative): Dependency Pairs P_0: 0] map#(F, cons(X, Y)) =#> map#(F, Y) 1] filter#(F, cons(X, Y)) =#> filter2#(F X, F, X, Y) 2] filter2#(true, F, X, Y) =#> filter#(F, Y) 3] filter2#(false, F, X, Y) =#> filter#(F, Y) Rules R_0: times(X, 0) => 0 times(X, s(Y)) => plus(times(X, Y), X) plus(X, 0) => X plus(0, X) => X plus(X, s(Y)) => s(plus(X, Y)) plus(s(X), Y) => s(plus(X, Y)) map(F, nil) => nil map(F, cons(X, Y)) => cons(F X, map(F, Y)) filter(F, nil) => nil filter(F, cons(X, Y)) => filter2(F X, F, X, Y) filter2(true, F, X, Y) => cons(X, filter(F, Y)) filter2(false, F, X, Y) => filter(F, Y) Thus, the original system is terminating if (P_0, R_0, computable, formative) is finite. We consider the dependency pair problem (P_0, R_0, computable, 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 : 0 * 1 : 2, 3 * 2 : 1 * 3 : 1 This graph has the following strongly connected components: P_1: map#(F, cons(X, Y)) =#> map#(F, Y) P_2: filter#(F, cons(X, Y)) =#> filter2#(F X, F, X, Y) filter2#(true, F, X, Y) =#> filter#(F, Y) filter2#(false, F, X, Y) =#> filter#(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, computable, formative) and (P_2, R_0, computable, formative) is finite. We consider the dependency pair problem (P_2, R_0, computable, formative). We apply the subterm criterion with the following projection function: nu(filter2#) = 4 nu(filter#) = 2 Thus, we can orient the dependency pairs as follows: nu(filter#(F, cons(X, Y))) = cons(X, Y) |> Y = nu(filter2#(F X, F, X, Y)) nu(filter2#(true, F, X, Y)) = Y = Y = nu(filter#(F, Y)) nu(filter2#(false, F, X, Y)) = Y = Y = nu(filter#(F, Y)) By [FuhKop19, Thm. 61], we may replace a dependency pair problem (P_2, R_0, computable, f) by (P_3, R_0, computable, f), where P_3 contains: filter2#(true, F, X, Y) =#> filter#(F, Y) filter2#(false, F, X, Y) =#> filter#(F, Y) Thus, the original system is terminating if each of (P_1, R_0, computable, formative) and (P_3, R_0, computable, formative) is finite. We consider the dependency pair problem (P_3, R_0, computable, 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 : This graph has no strongly connected components. By [Kop12, Thm. 7.31], this implies finiteness of the dependency pair problem. Thus, the original system is terminating if (P_1, R_0, computable, formative) is finite. We consider the dependency pair problem (P_1, R_0, computable, formative). We apply the subterm criterion with the following projection function: nu(map#) = 2 Thus, we can orient the dependency pairs as follows: nu(map#(F, cons(X, Y))) = cons(X, Y) |> Y = nu(map#(F, Y)) By [FuhKop19, Thm. 61], we may replace a dependency pair problem (P_1, R_0, computable, f) by ({}, R_0, computable, f). 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 +++ [FuhKop19] C. Fuhs, and C. Kop.
