YES

We show the termination of the TRS R:

  f(x,f(f(f(a(),a()),a()),a())) -> f(f(x,a()),x)

-- SCC decomposition.

Consider the dependency pair problem (P, R), where P consists of

p1: f#(x,f(f(f(a(),a()),a()),a())) -> f#(f(x,a()),x)
p2: f#(x,f(f(f(a(),a()),a()),a())) -> f#(x,a())

and R consists of:

r1: f(x,f(f(f(a(),a()),a()),a())) -> f(f(x,a()),x)

The estimated dependency graph contains the following SCCs:

  {p1}


-- Reduction pair.

Consider the dependency pair problem (P, R), where P consists of

p1: f#(x,f(f(f(a(),a()),a()),a())) -> f#(f(x,a()),x)

and R consists of:

r1: f(x,f(f(f(a(),a()),a()),a())) -> f(f(x,a()),x)

The set of usable rules consists of

  (no rules)

Take the reduction pair:

  max/plus interpretations on natural numbers:
  
    f#_A(x1,x2) = max{x1 + 5, x2 + 4}
    f_A(x1,x2) = max{3, x1 - 1, x2 - 9}
    a_A = 8

The next rules are strictly ordered:

  p1

We remove them from the problem.  Then no dependency pair remains.
