YES

We show the termination of the TRS R:

  b(x,y) -> c(a(c(y),a(|0|(),x)))
  a(y,x) -> y
  a(y,c(b(a(|0|(),x),|0|()))) -> b(a(c(b(|0|(),y)),x),|0|())

-- SCC decomposition.

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

p1: b#(x,y) -> a#(c(y),a(|0|(),x))
p2: b#(x,y) -> a#(|0|(),x)
p3: a#(y,c(b(a(|0|(),x),|0|()))) -> b#(a(c(b(|0|(),y)),x),|0|())
p4: a#(y,c(b(a(|0|(),x),|0|()))) -> a#(c(b(|0|(),y)),x)
p5: a#(y,c(b(a(|0|(),x),|0|()))) -> b#(|0|(),y)

and R consists of:

r1: b(x,y) -> c(a(c(y),a(|0|(),x)))
r2: a(y,x) -> y
r3: a(y,c(b(a(|0|(),x),|0|()))) -> b(a(c(b(|0|(),y)),x),|0|())

The estimated dependency graph contains the following SCCs:

  {p1, p2, p3, p4, p5}


-- Reduction pair.

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

p1: b#(x,y) -> a#(c(y),a(|0|(),x))
p2: a#(y,c(b(a(|0|(),x),|0|()))) -> b#(|0|(),y)
p3: b#(x,y) -> a#(|0|(),x)
p4: a#(y,c(b(a(|0|(),x),|0|()))) -> a#(c(b(|0|(),y)),x)
p5: a#(y,c(b(a(|0|(),x),|0|()))) -> b#(a(c(b(|0|(),y)),x),|0|())

and R consists of:

r1: b(x,y) -> c(a(c(y),a(|0|(),x)))
r2: a(y,x) -> y
r3: a(y,c(b(a(|0|(),x),|0|()))) -> b(a(c(b(|0|(),y)),x),|0|())

The set of usable rules consists of

  r1, r2, r3

Take the reduction pair:

  lexicographic combination of reduction pairs:
  
    1. max/plus interpretations on natural numbers:
    
      b#_A(x1,x2) = max{37, x1 - 7, x2 - 88}
      a#_A(x1,x2) = max{0, x1 - 87, x2 - 48}
      c_A(x1) = max{86, x1 - 28}
      a_A(x1,x2) = max{84, x1 + 1, x2 + 40}
      |0|_A = 0
      b_A(x1,x2) = max{117, x1 + 76, x2 - 54}
    
    2. max/plus interpretations on natural numbers:
    
      b#_A(x1,x2) = 0
      a#_A(x1,x2) = 1
      c_A(x1) = 2
      a_A(x1,x2) = 0
      |0|_A = 0
      b_A(x1,x2) = 1
    

The next rules are strictly ordered:

  p1, p2, p3, p4, p5

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