Using Dependency Pairs [1,13] we result in the following initial DP problem:
Q DP problem:

We use the reduction pair processor [13].


The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.


F2(f2(a, a), x) -> F2(f2(a, x), f2(a, f2(a, a)))
The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
none
Used ordering: Polynomial Order [17,21] with Interpretation:

POL( F2(x1, x2) ) = max{0, x1 + x2 - 1}


POL( f2(x1, x2) ) = max{0, x2 - 1}


POL( a ) = 3



The following usable rules [14] were oriented: none
