(7) CdtPolyRedPairProof (UPPER BOUND (ADD(O(n^1))) transformation)

Found a reduction pair which oriented the following tuples strictly. Hence they can be removed from S.

F1_IN(.(z0, z1)) → c1(F20_IN(z0, z1))
U3'(f23_out1, z0, z1) → c7(F1_IN(z1))

We considered the (Usable) Rules:

f23_in([]) → f23_out1
f23_in(.(z0, z1)) → U2(f23_in(z1), .(z0, z1))
U2(f23_out1, .(z0, z1)) → f23_out1

And the Tuples:

F20_IN(z0, z1) → c6(U3'(f23_in(z0), z0, z1), F23_IN(z0))
F1_IN(.(z0, z1)) → c1(F20_IN(z0, z1))
F23_IN(.(z0, z1)) → c4(F23_IN(z1))
U3'(f23_out1, z0, z1) → c7(F1_IN(z1))

The order we found is given by the following interpretation:
Polynomial interpretation :

POL(.(x₁, x₂)) = [1] + x₁ + x₂   
POL(F1_IN(x₁)) = [2]x₁   
POL(F20_IN(x₁, x₂)) = [2]x₁ + [2]x₂   
POL(F23_IN(x₁)) = 0   
POL(U2(x₁, x₂)) = [2]x₂

(15) CdtPolyRedPairProof (UPPER BOUND (ADD(O(n^1))) transformation)

Found a reduction pair which oriented the following tuples strictly. Hence they can be removed from S.

F2_IN(.(z0, z1)) → c1(F11_IN(z0, z1))
F11_IN([], z0) → c3(F14_IN(z0))
F11_IN(.(z0, z1), z2) → c4(F11_IN(z1, z2))

We considered the (Usable) Rules:none
And the Tuples:

F2_IN(.(z0, z1)) → c1(F11_IN(z0, z1))
F11_IN([], z0) → c3(F14_IN(z0))
F11_IN(.(z0, z1), z2) → c4(F11_IN(z1, z2))
F14_IN(z0) → c8(F2_IN(z0))

The order we found is given by the following interpretation:
Polynomial interpretation :

POL(.(x₁, x₂)) = [2] + x₁ + x₂   
POL(F11_IN(x₁, x₂)) = [1] + x₁ + x₂   
POL(F14_IN(x₁)) = x₁   
POL(F2_IN(x₁)) = x₁   
POL([]) = [1]   
POL(c1(x₁)) = x₁   
POL(c3(x₁)) = x₁   
POL(c4(x₁)) = x₁

The following tuples could be moved from S to K by knowledge propagation:

F14_IN(z0) → c8(F2_IN(z0))
F2_IN(.(z0, z1)) → c1(F11_IN(z0, z1))

Now S is empty
