The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.


F(b(b(x, f(y)), z)) → F(b(b(f(a), y), y))
The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
none
Used ordering: Combined order from the following AFS and order.
F(x1)  =  x1
b(x1, x2)  =  b(x1, x2)
f(x1)  =  f(x1)
a  =  a

Lexicographic path order with status [19].

f1 > b2 > a

Status:
a: multiset
b2: [2,1]
