The TRS P consists of the following rules:

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

eq(0, 0) → true

eq(s(n), 0) → false
eq(s(n), s(m)) → eq(n, m)
le(0, m) → true

le(s(n), s(m)) → le(n, m)
min(cons(0, nil)) → 0
min(cons(s(n), nil)) → s(n)
min(cons(n, cons(m, x))) → if_min(le(n, m), cons(n, cons(m, x)))
if_min(true, cons(n, cons(m, x))) → min(cons(n, x))

(20) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04].

The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.

SORT(cons(n, x)) → SORT(replace(min(cons(n, x)), n, x))

The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Combined order from the following AFS and order.
SORT(x1)  =  x1
cons(x1, x2)  =  cons(x2)
replace(x1, x2, x3)  =  x3
min(x1)  =  min
eq(x1, x2)  =  eq
0  =  0
true  =  true
s(x1)  =  s
false  =  false
le(x1, x2)  =  le
nil  =  nil
if_min(x1, x2)  =  if_min
if_replace(x1, x2, x3, x4)  =  x4
sort(x1)  =  sort(x1)

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

[min, if_min] > [cons₁, eq, true, le] > [0, s, false]
nil > [0, s, false]
sort₁ > [cons₁, eq, true, le] > [0, s, false]

Status:

cons₁: [1]
min: []
eq: []
0: multiset
true: multiset
s: multiset
false: multiset
le: []
nil: multiset
if_min: []
sort₁: multiset

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented:

eq(0, 0) → true
eq(0, s(m)) → false
eq(s(n), 0) → false
eq(s(n), s(m)) → eq(n, m)
le(0, m) → true
le(s(n), 0) → false
le(s(n), s(m)) → le(n, m)
min(cons(0, nil)) → 0
min(cons(s(n), nil)) → s(n)
min(cons(n, cons(m, x))) → if_min(le(n, m), cons(n, cons(m, x)))
if_min(true, cons(n, cons(m, x))) → min(cons(n, x))
if_min(false, cons(n, cons(m, x))) → min(cons(m, x))
replace(n, m, nil) → nil
replace(n, m, cons(k, x)) → if_replace(eq(n, k), n, m, cons(k, x))
if_replace(true, n, m, cons(k, x)) → cons(m, x)
if_replace(false, n, m, cons(k, x)) → cons(k, replace(n, m, x))
sort(nil) → nil
sort(cons(n, x)) → cons(min(cons(n, x)), sort(replace(min(cons(n, x)), n, x)))
