Strict DPs: { minus^#(s(x), s(y)) -> c_1(minus^#(x, y)) } Weak DPs: { quot^#(s(x), s(y)) -> c_2(quot^#(minus(x, y), s(y)), minus^#(x, y)) } Weak Trs: { minus(x, 0()) -> x , minus(s(x), s(y)) -> minus(x, y) } Obligation: innermost runtime complexity Answer: YES(O(1),O(n^2)) We use the processor 'Small Polynomial Path Order (PS,2-bounded)' to orient following rules strictly. DPs: { 1: minus^#(s(x), s(y)) -> c_1(minus^#(x, y)) , 2: quot^#(s(x), s(y)) -> c_2(quot^#(minus(x, y), s(y)), minus^#(x, y)) } Trs: { minus(s(x), s(y)) -> minus(x, y) } Sub-proof: ---------- The input was oriented with the instance of 'Small Polynomial Path Order (PS,2-bounded)' as induced by the safe mapping safe(minus) = {1}, safe(0) = {}, safe(s) = {1}, safe(plus) = {}, safe(minus^#) = {}, safe(quot^#) = {}, safe(plus^#) = {}, safe(c_1) = {}, safe(c_2) = {}, safe(c_3) = {}, safe(c_4) = {}, safe(c_5) = {} and precedence quot^# > minus^# . Following symbols are considered recursive: {minus^#, quot^#} The recursion depth is 2. Further, following argument filtering is employed: pi(minus) = 1, pi(0) = [], pi(s) = [1], pi(plus) = [], pi(minus^#) = [1, 2], pi(quot^#) = [1, 2], pi(plus^#) = [], pi(c_1) = [1], pi(c_2) = [1, 2], pi(c_3) = [], pi(c_4) = [], pi(c_5) = [] Usable defined function symbols are a subset of: {minus, minus^#, quot^#, plus^#} For your convenience, here are the satisfied ordering constraints: pi(minus^#(s(x), s(y))) = minus^#(s(; x), s(; y);) > c_1(minus^#(x, y;);) = pi(c_1(minus^#(x, y))) pi(quot^#(s(x), s(y))) = quot^#(s(; x), s(; y);) > c_2(quot^#(x, s(; y);), minus^#(x, y;);) = pi(c_2(quot^#(minus(x, y), s(y)), minus^#(x, y))) pi(minus(x, 0())) = x >= x = pi(x) pi(minus(s(x), s(y))) = s(; x) > x = pi(minus(x, y)) The strictly oriented rules are moved into the weak component. We are left with following problem, upon which TcT provides the certificate YES(O(1),O(1)). Weak DPs: { minus^#(s(x), s(y)) -> c_1(minus^#(x, y)) , quot^#(s(x), s(y)) -> c_2(quot^#(minus(x, y), s(y)), minus^#(x, y)) } Weak Trs: { minus(x, 0()) -> x , minus(s(x), s(y)) -> minus(x, y) } Obligation: innermost runtime complexity Answer: YES(O(1),O(1)) The following weak DPs constitute a sub-graph of the DG that is closed under successors. The DPs are removed. { minus^#(s(x), s(y)) -> c_1(minus^#(x, y)) , quot^#(s(x), s(y)) -> c_2(quot^#(minus(x, y), s(y)), minus^#(x, y)) } We are left with following problem, upon which TcT provides the certificate YES(O(1),O(1)). Weak Trs: { minus(x, 0()) -> x , minus(s(x), s(y)) -> minus(x, y) } Obligation: innermost runtime complexity Answer: YES(O(1),O(1)) No rule is usable, rules are removed from the input problem. We are left with following problem, upon which TcT provides the certificate YES(O(1),O(1)). Rules: Empty Obligation: innermost runtime complexity Answer: YES(O(1),O(1)) Empty rules are trivially bounded Hurray, we answered YES(O(1),O(n^2))
