YES

We show the termination of the TRS R:

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

-- SCC decomposition.

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

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

and R consists of:

r1: f(x,x) -> a()
r2: f(g(x),y) -> f(x,y)

The estimated dependency graph contains the following SCCs:

  {p1}


-- Reduction pair.

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

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

and R consists of:

r1: f(x,x) -> a()
r2: f(g(x),y) -> f(x,y)

The set of usable rules consists of

  (no rules)

Take the reduction pair:

  lexicographic combination of reduction pairs:
  
    1. matrix interpretations:
    
      carrier: N^1
      order: standard order
      interpretations:
        f#_A(x1,x2) = x1
        g_A(x1) = x1 + 1
    
    2. lexicographic path order with precedence:
    
      precedence:
      
        g > f#
      
      argument filter:
    
        pi(f#) = [1]
        pi(g) = [1]
    

The next rules are strictly ordered:

  p1

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