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

plus(plus(X, Y), Z) → plus(X, plus(Y, Z))
times(X, s(Y)) → plus(X, times(Y, X))

Q is empty.

(1) DependencyPairsProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

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

(2) Obligation:

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

PLUS(plus(X, Y), Z) → PLUS(X, plus(Y, Z))
PLUS(plus(X, Y), Z) → PLUS(Y, Z)
TIMES(X, s(Y)) → PLUS(X, times(Y, X))
TIMES(X, s(Y)) → TIMES(Y, X)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

plus(plus(X, Y), Z) → plus(X, plus(Y, Z))
times(X, s(Y)) → plus(X, times(Y, X))

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

(3) DependencyGraphProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

The approximation of the Dependency Graph [LPAR04,FROCOS05,EDGSTAR] contains 2 SCCs with 1 less node.

(4) Complex Obligation (AND)

(5) Obligation:

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

PLUS(plus(X, Y), Z) → PLUS(Y, Z)
PLUS(plus(X, Y), Z) → PLUS(X, plus(Y, Z))

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

plus(plus(X, Y), Z) → plus(X, plus(Y, Z))
times(X, s(Y)) → plus(X, times(Y, X))

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

(6) QDPOrderProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

We use the reduction pair processor [LPAR04].


The following pairs can be oriented strictly and are deleted.


PLUS(plus(X, Y), Z) → PLUS(Y, Z)
PLUS(plus(X, Y), Z) → PLUS(X, plus(Y, Z))
The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
Used ordering: Polynomial interpretation [POLO]:

POL(PLUS(x1, x2)) = x1   
POL(plus(x1, x2)) = 1 + x1 + x2   

The following usable rules [FROCOS05] were oriented: none
