The Runtime Complexity (full) of the given CpxTRS could be proven to be BOUNDS(INF, INF).

(0) Obligation:

Runtime Complexity TRS:
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

f(a, X) → f(X, X)
c → a
c → b

Rewrite Strategy: FULL

(1) InfiniteLowerBoundProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

The loop following loop proves infinite runtime complexity:
The rewrite sequence
f(a, a) →⁺ f(a, a)
gives rise to a decreasing loop by considering the right hand sides subterm at position [].
The pumping substitution is [ ].
The result substitution is [ ].

(2) BOUNDS(INF, INF)
