(5) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04].

The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.

APP(app(app(filtersub, true), f), app(app(cons, y), ys)) → APP(app(filter, f), ys)
APP(app(app(filtersub, false), f), app(app(cons, y), ys)) → APP(app(filter, f), ys)

The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Polynomial interpretation [POLO]:

POL(APP(x₁, x₂)) = x₁   
POL(app(x₁, x₂)) = x₁ + x₂   
POL(cons) = 0   
POL(false) = 0   
POL(filter) = 0   
POL(filtersub) = 1   
POL(true) = 0
