YES We show the termination of the TRS R: f(f(x)) -> g(f(x)) g(g(x)) -> f(x) -- SCC decomposition. Consider the dependency pair problem (P, R), where P consists of p1: f#(f(x)) -> g#(f(x)) p2: g#(g(x)) -> f#(x) and R consists of: r1: f(f(x)) -> g(f(x)) r2: g(g(x)) -> f(x) The estimated dependency graph contains the following SCCs: {p1, p2} -- Reduction pair. Consider the dependency pair problem (P, R), where P consists of p1: f#(f(x)) -> g#(f(x)) p2: g#(g(x)) -> f#(x) and R consists of: r1: f(f(x)) -> g(f(x)) r2: g(g(x)) -> f(x) The set of usable rules consists of r1, r2 Take the reduction pair: lexicographic combination of reduction pairs: 1. weighted path order base order: max/plus interpretations on natural numbers: f#_A(x1) = x1 + 6 f_A(x1) = x1 + 8 g#_A(x1) = x1 + 6 g_A(x1) = x1 + 7 precedence: f# = f = g# = g partial status: pi(f#) = [] pi(f) = [] pi(g#) = [] pi(g) = [] 2. weighted path order base order: max/plus interpretations on natural numbers: f#_A(x1) = x1 + 10 f_A(x1) = x1 + 4 g#_A(x1) = x1 + 9 g_A(x1) = max{9, x1 + 3} precedence: f# = f = g# = g partial status: pi(f#) = [1] pi(f) = [1] pi(g#) = [1] pi(g) = [] The next rules are strictly ordered: p1, p2 We remove them from the problem. Then no dependency pair remains.
