The TRS R consists of the following rules:

merge(x, nil) → x
merge(nil, y) → y
merge(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) → ++(x, merge(y, ++(u, v)))

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

merge(x, nil) → x
merge(nil, y) → y
merge(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) → ++(x, merge(y, ++(u, v)))
merge(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) → ++(u, merge(++(x, y), v))

Q is empty.

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

merge(x, nil) → x
merge(nil, y) → y
merge(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) → ++(x, merge(y, ++(u, v)))
merge(++(x, y), ++(u, v)) → ++(u, merge(++(x, y), v))

Q is empty.
The following rules can be removed by the rule removal processor [15] because they are oriented strictly by a polynomial ordering:

merge(x, nil) → x
merge(nil, y) → y
Used ordering:
Polynomial interpretation [25]:

POL(++(x1, x2)) = 2·x1 + x2   
POL(merge(x1, x2)) = 2·x1 + 2·x2   
POL(nil) = 1   
POL(u) = 0   
POL(v) = 0
