The TRS R 2 is

f(s(x), y) → f(p(-(s(x), y)), p(-(y, s(x))))
f(x, s(y)) → f(p(-(x, s(y))), p(-(s(y), x)))

(8) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04].

The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.

-¹(s(x), s(y)) → -¹(x, y)

The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Combined order from the following AFS and order.
-¹(x1, x2)  =  x2
s(x1)  =  s(x1)
-(x1, x2)  =  -(x1, x2)
0  =  0
p(x1)  =  x1
f(x1, x2)  =  f

Lexicographic Path Order [LPO].

[-₂, f] > s₁

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented:

-(x, 0) → x
-(s(x), s(y)) → -(x, y)
p(s(x)) → x
f(s(x), y) → f(p(-(s(x), y)), p(-(y, s(x))))
