(8) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04].


The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.


LT(s(x), s(y)) → LT(x, y)
The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Combined order from the following AFS and order.
LT(x1, x2)  =  LT(x1)
s(x1)  =  s(x1)
lt(x1, x2)  =  lt
0  =  0
true  =  true
false  =  false
fac(x1)  =  fac(x1)
help(x1, x2)  =  help
if(x1, x2, x3)  =  x1
times(x1, x2)  =  times

Lexicographic path order with status [LPO].
Precedence:
LT1 > 0
fac1 > help > lt > true > s1 > 0
fac1 > help > lt > true > times > 0
fac1 > help > lt > false > s1 > 0

Status:
fac1: [1]
true: []
help: []
times: []
false: []
LT1: [1]
s1: [1]
lt: []
0: []

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented:

lt(0, s(x)) → true
lt(x, 0) → false
lt(s(x), s(y)) → lt(x, y)
fac(x) → help(x, 0)
help(x, c) → if(lt(c, x), x, c)
