(8) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04].

The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.

CONCAT(cons(u, v), y) → CONCAT(v, y)

The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Combined order from the following AFS and order.
CONCAT(x1, x2)  =  CONCAT(x1, x2)
cons(x1, x2)  =  cons(x1, x2)
isLeaf(x1)  =  isLeaf
leaf  =  leaf
true  =  true
false  =  false
left(x1)  =  left(x1)
right(x1)  =  x1
concat(x1, x2)  =  concat(x1, x2)
less_leaves(x1, x2)  =  less_leaves
if1(x1, x2, x3, x4)  =  x1
if2(x1, x2, x3)  =  x1

Recursive path order with status [RPO].
Quasi-Precedence:

left₁ > [isLeaf, leaf, true, false, less_leaves]
concat₂ > [CONCAT₂, cons₂] > [isLeaf, leaf, true, false, less_leaves]

Status:

CONCAT₂: [2,1]
cons₂: multiset
isLeaf: multiset
leaf: multiset
true: multiset
false: multiset
left₁: multiset
concat₂: [2,1]
less_leaves: multiset

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented:

isLeaf(leaf) → true
isLeaf(cons(u, v)) → false
left(cons(u, v)) → u
right(cons(u, v)) → v
concat(leaf, y) → y
concat(cons(u, v), y) → cons(u, concat(v, y))
less_leaves(u, v) → if1(isLeaf(u), isLeaf(v), u, v)
if1(b, true, u, v) → false
if1(b, false, u, v) → if2(b, u, v)
