The Runtime Complexity (full) of the given CpxTRS could be proven to be BOUNDS(2^n, INF).

(0) Obligation:

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

from(X) → cons(X, n__from(n__s(X)))
2ndspos(0, Z) → rnil
2ndspos(s(N), cons(X, n__cons(Y, Z))) → rcons(posrecip(activate(Y)), 2ndsneg(N, activate(Z)))
2ndsneg(0, Z) → rnil
2ndsneg(s(N), cons(X, n__cons(Y, Z))) → rcons(negrecip(activate(Y)), 2ndspos(N, activate(Z)))
pi(X) → 2ndspos(X, from(0))
plus(0, Y) → Y
plus(s(X), Y) → s(plus(X, Y))
times(0, Y) → 0
times(s(X), Y) → plus(Y, times(X, Y))
square(X) → times(X, X)
from(X) → n__from(X)
s(X) → n__s(X)
cons(X1, X2) → n__cons(X1, X2)
activate(n__from(X)) → from(activate(X))
activate(n__s(X)) → s(activate(X))
activate(n__cons(X1, X2)) → cons(activate(X1), X2)
activate(X) → X

(1) CpxTrsToCpxRelTrsProof (BOTH BOUNDS(ID, ID) transformation)

Transformed TRS to relative TRS where S is empty.

(2) Obligation:

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

2ndspos(0, Z) → rnil
2ndspos(s(N), cons(X, n__cons(Y, Z))) → rcons(posrecip(activate(Y)), 2ndsneg(N, activate(Z)))
2ndsneg(0, Z) → rnil

(3) DecreasingLoopProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

The following loop(s) give(s) rise to the lower bound Ω(2ⁿ):
The rewrite sequence
activate(n__from(X)) →⁺ cons(activate(X), n__from(n__s(activate(X))))
gives rise to a decreasing loop by considering the right hand sides subterm at position [0].
The pumping substitution is [X / n__from(X)].
The result substitution is [ ].

The rewrite sequence
activate(n__from(X)) →⁺ cons(activate(X), n__from(n__s(activate(X))))
gives rise to a decreasing loop by considering the right hand sides subterm at position [1,0,0].
The pumping substitution is [X / n__from(X)].
The result substitution is [ ].
