NO Non-Confluence Proof

Non-Confluence Proof

by ACP

Input

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

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

Proof

1 Non-Joinable Fork

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

t0 = h(h(c,a),a)
1.1 h(h(b,a),a)
1 h(b,a)
2 h(b,f(a))
= t3

t0 = h(h(c,a),a)
1.1 h(h(b,a),a)
1 h(b,a)
ε b
= t3

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