YES

We show the termination of the TRS R:

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

-- SCC decomposition.

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

p1: f#(a(),x) -> f#(g(x),x)
p2: f#(a(),x) -> g#(x)
p3: h#(g(x)) -> h#(a())
p4: g#(h(x)) -> g#(x)

and R consists of:

r1: f(a(),x) -> f(g(x),x)
r2: h(g(x)) -> h(a())
r3: g(h(x)) -> g(x)
r4: h(h(x)) -> x

The estimated dependency graph contains the following SCCs:

  {p1}
  {p4}


-- Reduction pair.

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

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

and R consists of:

r1: f(a(),x) -> f(g(x),x)
r2: h(g(x)) -> h(a())
r3: g(h(x)) -> g(x)
r4: h(h(x)) -> x

The set of usable rules consists of

  r3

Take the reduction pair:

  weighted path order
  
    base order:
  
      matrix interpretations:
      
        carrier: N^2
        order: standard order
        interpretations:
          f#_A(x1,x2) = ((0,1),(0,0)) x1 + (3,2)
          a_A() = (2,1)
          g_A(x1) = (1,0)
          h_A(x1) = (2,1)
  
    precedence:
    
      f# > h > a = g
    
    partial status:
  
      pi(f#) = []
      pi(a) = []
      pi(g) = []
      pi(h) = []

The next rules are strictly ordered:

  p1

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

-- Reduction pair.
