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

a__f(a, b, X) → a__f(X, X, mark(X))
a__c → a
a__c → b
mark(f(X1, X2, X3)) → a__f(X1, X2, mark(X3))

(5) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04].


The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.


MARK(f(X1, X2, X3)) → A__F(X1, X2, mark(X3))
MARK(f(X1, X2, X3)) → MARK(X3)
The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Combined order from the following AFS and order.
A__F(x1, x2, x3)  =  x3
MARK(x1)  =  x1
f(x1, x2, x3)  =  f(x3)
mark(x1)  =  x1
a__f(x1, x2, x3)  =  a__f(x3)
a__c  =  a__c
a  =  a
b  =  b
c  =  c

Recursive Path Order [RPO].
Precedence:
[f1, af1]
[ac, c] > a
[ac, c] > b


The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented:

a__f(a, b, X) → a__f(X, X, mark(X))
a__c → a
a__c → b
mark(f(X1, X2, X3)) → a__f(X1, X2, mark(X3))
