The Runtime Complexity (innermost) 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:

g(f(x, y)) → f(f(g(g(x)), g(g(y))), f(g(g(x)), g(g(y))))

Rewrite Strategy: INNERMOST

(1) RenamingProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

Renamed function symbols to avoid clashes with predefined symbol.

(2) Obligation:

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

g(f(x, y)) → f(f(g(g(x)), g(g(y))), f(g(g(x)), g(g(y))))

S is empty.
Rewrite Strategy: INNERMOST

(3) TypeInferenceProof (BOTH BOUNDS(ID, ID) transformation)

Infered types.

(4) Obligation:

Innermost TRS:
Rules:
g(f(x, y)) → f(f(g(g(x)), g(g(y))), f(g(g(x)), g(g(y))))

Types:
g :: f → f
f :: f → f → f
hole_f1_0 :: f
gen_f2_0 :: Nat → f

(5) OrderProof (LOWER BOUND(ID) transformation)

Heuristically decided to analyse the following defined symbols:
g

(6) Obligation:

Innermost TRS:
Rules:
g(f(x, y)) → f(f(g(g(x)), g(g(y))), f(g(g(x)), g(g(y))))

Types:
g :: f → f
f :: f → f → f
hole_f1_0 :: f
gen_f2_0 :: Nat → f

Generator Equations:
gen_f2_0(0) ⇔ hole_f1_0
gen_f2_0(+(x, 1)) ⇔ f(hole_f1_0, gen_f2_0(x))

The following defined symbols remain to be analysed:
g

(7) RewriteLemmaProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

Proved the following rewrite lemma:
g(gen_f2_0(+(1, n4_0))) → *3_0, rt ∈ Ω(2ⁿ)

Induction Base:
g(gen_f2_0(+(1, 0)))

Induction Step:
g(gen_f2_0(+(1, +(n4_0, 1)))) →_R^Ω(1)
f(f(g(g(hole_f1_0)), g(g(gen_f2_0(+(1, n4_0))))), f(g(g(hole_f1_0)), g(g(gen_f2_0(+(1, n4_0)))))) →_IH
f(f(g(g(hole_f1_0)), g(*3_0)), f(g(g(hole_f1_0)), g(g(gen_f2_0(+(1, n4_0)))))) →_IH
f(f(g(g(hole_f1_0)), g(*3_0)), f(g(g(hole_f1_0)), g(*3_0)))

We have rt ∈ Ω(2ⁿ) and sz ∈ O(n). Thus, we have irc_R ∈ Ω(2ⁿ)
