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

f(n__f(n__a)) → f(n__g(n__f(n__a)))
f(X) → n__f(X)
an__a
g(X) → n__g(X)
activate(n__f(X)) → f(X)
activate(n__a) → a
activate(n__g(X)) → g(activate(X))
activate(X) → X

Rewrite Strategy: INNERMOST

(1) DecreasingLoopProof (EQUIVALENT transformation)

The following loop(s) give(s) rise to the lower bound Ω(n1):
The rewrite sequence
activate(n__g(X)) →+ g(activate(X))
gives rise to a decreasing loop by considering the right hand sides subterm at position [0].
The pumping substitution is [X / n__g(X)].
The result substitution is [ ].
