U6(f19_out1, z0, z1) → U7(f19_in(z1), z0, z1)

(29) 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.

F19_IN(tree(z0, z1, z2)) → c6(F35_IN(z0, z2))

We considered the (Usable) Rules:

f19_in(nil) → f19_out1
f19_in(tree(z0, z1, z2)) → U3(f35_in(z0, z2), tree(z0, z1, z2))
f35_in(z0, z1) → U6(f19_in(z0), z0, z1)
U3(f35_out1, tree(z0, z1, z2)) → f19_out1
U6(f19_out1, z0, z1) → U7(f19_in(z1), z0, z1)
U7(f19_out1, z0, z1) → f35_out1

And the Tuples:

F17_IN(z0, z1) → c8(U4'(f19_in(z0), z0, z1), F19_IN(z0))
F35_IN(z0, z1) → c11(U6'(f19_in(z0), z0, z1), F19_IN(z0))
F1_IN(z0) → c1(F5_IN(z0))
F5_IN(tree(z0, z1, z2)) → c3(F17_IN(z0, z2))
F19_IN(tree(z0, z1, z2)) → c6(F35_IN(z0, z2))
U4'(f19_out1, z0, z1) → c9(F5_IN(z1))
U6'(f19_out1, z0, z1) → c12(F19_IN(z1))
F1_IN(z0) → c1
