(7) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04].

The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.

I(*(x, y)) → I(x)
I(*(x, y)) → I(y)

The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Combined order from the following AFS and order.
I(x1)  =  x1
*(x1, x2)  =  *(x1, x2)
1  =  1
i(x1)  =  i(x1)
k(x1, x2)  =  k

Lexicographic path order with status [LPO].
Precedence:

i₁ > *₂ > 1
k > 1

Status:

*₂: [2,1]

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented:

*(x, 1) → x
*(1, y) → y
*(i(x), x) → 1
*(x, i(x)) → 1
*(x, *(y, z)) → *(*(x, y), z)
i(1) → 1
