Input (TPDB Runtime_Complexity_Innermost_Rewriting/AG01/#3.24)

The rewrite relation of the following TRS is considered.

f(0) s(0) (1)
f(s(0)) s(0) (2)
f(s(s(x))) f(f(s(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 2. This is shown by the following automaton.
