Harnessing First Order Termination Provers Using Higher Order Dependency Pairs
Many functional programs and higher order term rewrite systems contain, besides higher order rules, also a significant first order part. We discuss how an automatic termination p...

The size-change principle and dependency pairs for termination of term rewriting
Abstract In [24], a new size-change principle was proposed to verify termination of functional programs automatically. We extend this principle in order to prove termination and in...

Improving the Context-sensitive Dependency Graph
The dependency pairs method is one of the most powerful technique for proving termination of rewriting and it is currently central in most automatic termination provers. Recently,...

Signature Extensions Preserve Termination - An Alternative Proof via Dependency Pairs
Abstract. We give the first mechanized proof of the fact that for showing termination of a term rewrite system, we may restrict to well-formed terms using just the function symbols...

Decision Procedures for Loop Detection
Abstract. The dependency pair technique is a powerful modular method for automated termination proofs of term rewrite systems. We first show that dependency pairs are also suitabl...

Context-Sensitive Dependency Pairs
Termination is one of the most interesting problems when dealing with context-sensitive rewrite systems. Although there is a good number of techniques for proving termination of co...
