The remaining pairs can at least be oriented weakly.
none
Used ordering: Matrix interpretation [3]:
Non-tuple symbols:
M( a(x1) ) =
/1\
\1/
+
/01\
\11/
·x1

M( p(x1, x2) ) =
/0\
\0/

·x1+
/11\
\00/
·x2

M( b(x1) ) =
/0\
\0/
+
/11\
\11/
·x1

Tuple symbols:
M( P(x1, x2) ) = 0+
[0,1]
·x1+
[1,0]
·x2


Matrix type:
We used a basic matrix type which is not further parametrizeable.


As matrix orders are CE-compatible, we used usable rules w.r.t. argument filtering in the order.
The following usable rules [17] were oriented: none
