Input

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

a(x) x
a(a(x)) b(c(x))
b(x) x
c(x) x
c(b(x)) b(a(c(x)))

Proof

1 Redundant Rules Transformation

To prove that the TRS is (non-)confluent, we show (non-)confluence of the following modified system:

a(x) x
b(x) x
c(x) x

All redundant rules that were added or removed can be simulated in 4 steps .

1.1 Critical Pair Closing System

Confluence is proven using the following terminating critical-pair-closing-system R:

There are no rules.

1.1.1 R is empty

There are no rules in the TRS. Hence, it is terminating.
