Q restricted rewrite system:
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

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

(1) DependencyPairsProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

Using Dependency Pairs [AG00,LPAR04] we result in the following initial DP problem.

Q DP problem:

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

Q is empty.
We have to consider all minimal (P,Q,R)-chains.

(5) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04].

The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.

APP(app(filter, f), app(app(cons, y), ys)) → APP(f, y)

The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: SCNP Order with the following components:
Level mapping:
Top level AFS:
APP(x1, x2)  =  APP(x1)

Tags:
APP has tags [1,0]

Comparison: MAX
Underlying order for the size change arcs and the rules of R:
Combined order from the following AFS and order.
app(x1, x2)  =  app(x2)
filtersub  =  filtersub
true  =  true
cons  =  cons
filter  =  filter
false  =  false

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

[app₁, true, false]

Status:

app₁: multiset
filtersub: multiset
true: multiset
cons: multiset
filter: multiset
false: multiset

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented: none

(6) Obligation:

Q DP problem:
The TRS P consists of the following rules:

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

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