  Variables A B : Type.
  Variable R : B -> B -> Prop.
  Variable f : A -> B.

  Let Rof (x y:A) : Prop := R (f x) (f y).

  Remark Acc_lemma : forall y:B, Acc R y -> forall x:A, y = f x -> Acc Rof x.
  Proof.
    induction 1 as [y _ IHAcc]; intros x H.
    apply Acc_intro; intros y0 H1.
    apply (IHAcc (f y0)); try trivial.
    rewrite H; trivial.
  Qed.

  Lemma Acc_inverse_image : forall x:A, Acc R (f x) -> Acc Rof x.
  Proof.
