Input (TPDB Runtime_Complexity_Innermost_Rewriting/Various_04/15)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

f(s(x)) s(s(f(p(s(x))))) (1)
f(0) 0 (2)
p(s(x)) x (3)
The evaluation strategy is innermost.

Property / Task

Determine bounds on the runtime complexity.

Answer / Result

An upperbound for the complexity is O(n).

Proof (by AProVE @ termCOMP 2023)

1 Bounds

The given TRS is match-(raise)-bounded by 1. This is shown by the following automaton.
