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

HELPA(c, l, ys, zs) → IF(ge(c, l), c, l, ys, zs)
IF(false, c, l, ys, zs) → HELPB(c, l, ys, zs)
HELPB(c, l, ys, zs) → HELPA(s(c), l, ys, zs)

The TRS R consists of the following rules:

ge(x, 0) → true
ge(0, s(x)) → false
ge(s(x), s(y)) → ge(x, y)

The set Q consists of the following terms:

ge(x0, 0)
ge(0, s(x0))
ge(s(x0), s(x1))

We have to consider all minimal (P,Q,R)-chains.
The DP Problem is simplified using the Induction Calculus [18] with the following steps:
Note that final constraints are written in bold face.

For Pair HELPA(c, l, ys, zs) → IF(ge(c, l), c, l, ys, zs) the following chains were created:

We consider the chain HELPB(c, l, ys, zs) → HELPA(s(c), l, ys, zs), HELPA(c, l, ys, zs) → IF(ge(c, l), c, l, ys, zs) which results in the following constraint:
(1) (HELPA(s(x8), x9, x10, x11)=HELPA(x12, x13, x14, x15) ⇒ HELPA(x12, x13, x14, x15)≥IF(ge(x12, x13), x12, x13, x14, x15))

We simplified constraint (1) using rules (I), (II), (III) which results in the following new constraint:
(2) (HELPA(s(x8), x9, x10, x11)≥IF(ge(s(x8), x9), s(x8), x9, x10, x11))

For Pair IF(false, c, l, ys, zs) → HELPB(c, l, ys, zs) the following chains were created:

We consider the chain HELPA(c, l, ys, zs) → IF(ge(c, l), c, l, ys, zs), IF(false, c, l, ys, zs) → HELPB(c, l, ys, zs) which results in the following constraint:
(3)    (IF(ge(x16, x17), x16, x17, x18, x19)=IF(false, x20, x21, x22, x23) ⇒ IF(false, x20, x21, x22, x23)≥HELPB(x20, x21, x22, x23))

We simplified constraint (3) using rules (I), (II), (III) which results in the following new constraint:
(4)    (ge(x16, x17)=false ⇒ IF(false, x16, x17, x18, x19)≥HELPB(x16, x17, x18, x19))

We simplified constraint (4) using rule (V) (with possible (I) afterwards) using induction on ge(x16, x17)=false which results in the following new constraints:
(5)    (false=false ⇒ IF(false, 0, s(x49), x18, x19)≥HELPB(0, s(x49), x18, x19))

(6)    (ge(x50, x51)=false∧(∀x52,x53:ge(x50, x51)=false ⇒ IF(false, x50, x51, x52, x53)≥HELPB(x50, x51, x52, x53)) ⇒ IF(false, s(x50), s(x51), x18, x19)≥HELPB(s(x50), s(x51), x18, x19))

We simplified constraint (5) using rules (I), (II) which results in the following new constraint:
(7)    (IF(false, 0, s(x49), x18, x19)≥HELPB(0, s(x49), x18, x19))

We simplified constraint (6) using rule (VI) where we applied the induction hypothesis (∀x52,x53:ge(x50, x51)=false ⇒ IF(false, x50, x51, x52, x53)≥HELPB(x50, x51, x52, x53)) with σ = [x52 / x18, x53 / x19] which results in the following new constraint:
(8)    (IF(false, x50, x51, x18, x19)≥HELPB(x50, x51, x18, x19) ⇒ IF(false, s(x50), s(x51), x18, x19)≥HELPB(s(x50), s(x51), x18, x19))

For Pair HELPB(c, l, ys, zs) → HELPA(s(c), l, ys, zs) the following chains were created:

We consider the chain IF(false, c, l, ys, zs) → HELPB(c, l, ys, zs), HELPB(c, l, ys, zs) → HELPA(s(c), l, ys, zs) which results in the following constraint:
(9) (HELPB(x36, x37, x38, x39)=HELPB(x40, x41, x42, x43) ⇒ HELPB(x40, x41, x42, x43)≥HELPA(s(x40), x41, x42, x43))

We simplified constraint (9) using rules (I), (II), (III) which results in the following new constraint:
(10) (HELPB(x36, x37, x38, x39)≥HELPA(s(x36), x37, x38, x39))

To summarize, we get the following constraints P_≥ for the following pairs.

HELPA(c, l, ys, zs) → IF(ge(c, l), c, l, ys, zs)
- (HELPA(s(x8), x9, x10, x11)≥IF(ge(s(x8), x9), s(x8), x9, x10, x11))
IF(false, c, l, ys, zs) → HELPB(c, l, ys, zs)
- (IF(false, 0, s(x49), x18, x19)≥HELPB(0, s(x49), x18, x19))
- (IF(false, x50, x51, x18, x19)≥HELPB(x50, x51, x18, x19) ⇒ IF(false, s(x50), s(x51), x18, x19)≥HELPB(s(x50), s(x51), x18, x19))
HELPB(c, l, ys, zs) → HELPA(s(c), l, ys, zs)
- (HELPB(x36, x37, x38, x39)≥HELPA(s(x36), x37, x38, x39))

The constraints for P_> respective P_bound are constructed from P_≥ where we just replace every occurence of "t ≥ s" in P_≥ by "t > s" respective "t ≥ c". Here c stands for the fresh constant used for P_bound.
Using the following integer polynomial ordering the resulting constraints can be solved
Polynomial interpretation [18]:

POL(0) = 0
POL(HELPA(x₁, x₂, x₃, x₄)) = 1 - x₁ + x₂
POL(HELPB(x₁, x₂, x₃, x₄)) = 1 - x₁ + x₂
POL(IF(x₁, x₂, x₃, x₄, x₅)) = 1 - x₁ - x₂ + x₃
POL(c) = -1
POL(false) = 0
POL(ge(x₁, x₂)) = 0
POL(s(x₁)) = 1 + x₁
POL(true) = 1

The following pairs are in P_>:

HELPB(c, l, ys, zs) → HELPA(s(c), l, ys, zs)

The following pairs are in P_bound:

IF(false, c, l, ys, zs) → HELPB(c, l, ys, zs)

The following rules are usable:

true → ge(x, 0)
false → ge(0, s(x))
ge(x, y) → ge(s(x), s(y))

We have to consider all minimal (P,Q,R)-chains.
We deleted the following terms from Q as each root-symbol of these terms does neither occur in P nor in R.

app(x0, x1)
plus(x0, 0)
plus(x0, s(x1))
length(nil)
length(cons(x0, x1))
helpa(x0, x1, x2, x3)
ge(x0, 0)
ge(0, s(x0))
ge(s(x0), s(x1))
if(true, x0, x1, x2, x3)
if(false, x0, x1, x2, x3)
take(0, cons(x0, xs), x1)
take(0, nil, cons(x0, x1))
take(s(x0), cons(x1, xs), x2)
take(s(x0), nil, cons(x1, x2))

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

PLUS(x, s(y)) → PLUS(x, y)

From the DPs we obtained the following set of size-change graphs:

PLUS(x, s(y)) → PLUS(x, y)
The graph contains the following edges 1 >= 1, 2 > 2
