The system is accessible function passing by a sort ordering with listf ≻ a. We start by computing the following initial DP problem: P1. (1) lapply#(x, cons(F, lf)) => lapply#(x, lf) ***** We apply the Subterm Criterion Processor on P1. We use the following projection function: nu(lapply#) = 2 We thus have: (1) cons(F, lf) |>| lf All DPs are strictly oriented, and may be removed. Hence, this DP problem is finite.
