H2: match value d [y] with
 | []=>false
 |b::l=>....

First case is false due to the occurence of y in list. To simplify H2 , i should apply induction on [y]. Or un fold vaue function in H2 to show and prove that this function gives false only in case of empty input list. One element of list is y,If i need information of second elements of same list then i have to apply induction again or simply apply destruct? What is the simplest way of simplify above?

Hi, the answer depends completely on the definition of value. This is precisely why we ask to always give a completely compilable code snippet. If value is a fixpoint decreasing on its second argument, then probably unfold is the way to try, if not, well, I need more.
