NO Non-Confluence Proof

Non-Confluence Proof

by csi

Input

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

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

Proof

1 Non-Joinable Fork

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

t0 = h(h(a,c),b)
2 h(h(a,c),h(h(b,a),f(a)))
1.2 h(h(a,h(h(a,h(a,h(c,b))),f(f(h(h(a,h(h(f(a),c),f(c))),f(h(b,a))))))),h(h(b,a),f(a)))
1.2.1.2.2.1 h(h(a,h(h(a,h(a,h(h(h(a,h(a,h(c,b))),f(f(h(h(a,h(h(f(a),c),f(c))),f(h(b,a)))))),b))),f(f(h(h(a,h(h(f(a),c),f(c))),f(h(b,a))))))),h(h(b,a),f(a)))
= t3

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

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