YES # Compositional parallel critical pair system (Shintani and Hirokawa 2022). Consider the left-linear TRS R: W(W(x)) -> W(x) B(I(x)) -> W(x) W(B(x)) -> B(x) F(H(x),y) -> F(H(x),G(y)) F(x,I(y)) -> F(G(x),I(y)) G(x) -> x Let C be the following subset of R: G(x) -> x The parallel critical pair system PCPS(R,C) is: W(B(I(x1_1))) -> W(W(x1_1)) W(B(I(x1_1))) -> B(I(x1_1)) All pairs in PCP(R) are joinable and PCPS(R,C)/R is terminating. Therefore, the confluence of R follows from that of C. # Compositional parallel critical pair system (Shintani and Hirokawa 2022).
