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

a(x1) → x1
a(a(x1)) → a(b(c(x1)))
c(b(x1)) → a(c(a(x1)))

(7) CdtPolyRedPairProof (UPPER BOUND (ADD(O(n^1))) transformation)

Found a reduction pair which oriented the following tuples strictly. Hence they can be removed from S.

C(b(z0)) → c3(C(a(z0)))
We considered the (Usable) Rules:

a(z0) → z0
And the Tuples:

C(b(z0)) → c3(C(a(z0)))
The order we found is given by the following interpretation:
Polynomial interpretation :

POL(C(x1)) = [4]x1   
POL(a(x1)) = x1   
POL(b(x1)) = [4] + x1   
POL(c3(x1)) = x1
