     ↳Overlay and local confluence Check

The TRS is overlay and locally confluent (all critical pairs are trivially joinable).Hence, we can switch to innermost.

         ↳Dependency Pair Analysis

R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

-'(s(x), s(y)) -> -'(x, y)
<='(s(x), s(y)) -> <='(x, y)
PERFECTP(s(x)) -> F(x, s(0), s(x), s(x))
F(s(x), 0, z, u) -> F(x, u, -(z, s(x)), u)
F(s(x), 0, z, u) -> -'(z, s(x))
F(s(x), s(y), z, u) -> IF(<=(x, y), f(s(x), -(y, x), z, u), f(x, u, z, u))
F(s(x), s(y), z, u) -> <='(x, y)
F(s(x), s(y), z, u) -> F(s(x), -(y, x), z, u)
F(s(x), s(y), z, u) -> -'(y, x)
F(s(x), s(y), z, u) -> F(x, u, z, u)

Furthermore, R contains three SCCs.
