We consider termination of the STRS with no additional rule schemes: Signature: a :: o b :: o f :: o -> o -> o g :: o -> o -> o h :: (o -> o) -> o Rules: f(x, b) -> g(x, x) g(x, a) -> f(x, x) h(F) -> F(a) h(F) -> F(b) The system is accessible function passing by a sort ordering that equates all sorts. We start by computing the initial DP problem D1 = (P1, R, i, c), where: P1. (1) f#(x, b) => g#(x, x) (2) g#(x, a) => f#(x, x) ***** No progress could be made on DP problem D1 = (P1, R, i, c).
