NO Non-Confluence Proof

Non-Confluence Proof

by ACP

Input

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

f(h(b,a)) a
f(f(f(c))) c
b c
c c
a a

Proof

1 Non-Joinable Fork

The system is not confluent due to the following forking derivations.

t0 = f(h(b,f(h(b,a))))
1.1 f(h(c,f(h(b,a))))
1.2 f(h(c,a))
= t2

t0 = f(h(b,f(h(b,a))))
1.2 f(h(b,a))
ε a
= t2

The two resulting terms cannot be joined for the following reason:
