Q restricted rewrite system:
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

concat(leaf, y) → y
concat(cons(u, v), y) → cons(u, concat(v, y))
less_leaves(x, leaf) → false
less_leaves(leaf, cons(w, z)) → true
less_leaves(cons(u, v), cons(w, z)) → less_leaves(concat(u, v), concat(w, z))

Q is empty.

(1) QTRSRRRProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

Used ordering:
Lexicographic path order with status [LPO].
Quasi-Precedence:
leaf > true
[lessleaves2, false] > [concat2, cons2] > true

Status:
cons2: [1,2]
true: []
concat2: [1,2]
leaf: []
false: []
lessleaves2: [2,1]

With this ordering the following rules can be removed by the rule removal processor [LPAR04] because they are oriented strictly:

concat(leaf, y) → y
concat(cons(u, v), y) → cons(u, concat(v, y))
less_leaves(x, leaf) → false
less_leaves(leaf, cons(w, z)) → true


(2) Obligation:

Q restricted rewrite system:
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

less_leaves(cons(u, v), cons(w, z)) → less_leaves(concat(u, v), concat(w, z))

Q is empty.

(3) QTRSRRRProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

Used ordering:
Lexicographic path order with status [LPO].
Quasi-Precedence:
cons2 > [lessleaves2, concat2]

Status:
cons2: [2,1]
concat2: [2,1]
lessleaves2: [2,1]

With this ordering the following rules can be removed by the rule removal processor [LPAR04] because they are oriented strictly:

less_leaves(cons(u, v), cons(w, z)) → less_leaves(concat(u, v), concat(w, z))

Q restricted rewrite system:
R is empty.
Q is empty.

(5) RisEmptyProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

The TRS R is empty. Hence, termination is trivially proven.
