Certification Problem

Input (COPS 403)

The rewrite relation of the following conditional TRS is considered.

e(0) → true
e(s(x)) → true | e(x) ≈ false
e(s(x)) → false | e(x) ≈ true

Property / Task

Prove or disprove confluence.

Answer / Result

Yes.

Proof (by ConCon @ CoCo 2020)

1 Almost-orthogonal modulo infeasibility

The given (extended) properly oriented, right-stable, oriented 3-CTRS is almost-orthogonal modulo infeasibility, since all its conditional critical pairs are infeasible.
