w₂: <L ... sXL ... sXL ... sXL ... sXL ...L] (complete chunks followed by one or more L's) | |||
w₃: <L ... sXL ... sXL ... sXL ... s> (complete chunks only) | |||
This implies that the last chunk is bigger than the first one, a contradiction because w₂ begins in λ. | This implies that the last chunk is bigger than the first one, a contradiction because w₂ begins in λ. | ||
Case 1.2: | Case 1.2: | ||
w₁: s[something with k s's] | |||
w₂: <L ... sXL ... sXL ... sXL ... s> (complete chunks only) | |||
w₃: <L ... sXL ... sXL ... sXL ... s> (complete chunks only) | |||
So W₂(L<sup>r+1</sup>s, L<sup>r</sup>s) has k+1 chunks, a contradiction. | So W₂(L<sup>r+1</sup>s, L<sup>r</sup>s) has k+1 chunks, a contradiction. | ||
