(9) UsableRulesReductionPairsProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

By using the usable rules with reduction pair processor [LPAR04] with a polynomial ordering [POLO], all dependency pairs and the corresponding usable rules [FROCOS05] can be oriented non-strictly. All non-usable rules are removed, and those dependency pairs and usable rules that have been oriented strictly or contain non-usable symbols in their left-hand side are removed as well.

The following dependency pairs can be deleted:

COUNTSTACKA_IN_GA(push(nil, push(cons(X1, X2), X3))) → COUNTSTACKA_IN_GA(push(X1, push(X2, X3)))
COUNTSTACKA_IN_GA(push(nil, push(nil, X1))) → COUNTSTACKA_IN_GA(X1)
COUNTSTACKA_IN_GA(push(cons(nil, X1), X2)) → COUNTSTACKA_IN_GA(push(X1, X2))
COUNTSTACKA_IN_GA(push(cons(cons(X1, X2), X3), X4)) → COUNTSTACKA_IN_GA(push(X1, push(X2, push(X3, X4))))
No rules are removed from R.

Used ordering: POLO with Polynomial interpretation [POLO]:

POL(COUNTSTACKA_IN_GA(x1)) = 2·x1   
POL(cons(x1, x2)) = x1 + x2   
POL(nil) = 0   
POL(push(x1, x2)) = 2·x1 + x2
