(0) Obligation:

The Runtime Complexity (innermost) of the given CpxTRS could be proven to be BOUNDS(1, n^1).


The TRS R consists of the following rules:

f(cons(nil, y)) → y
f(cons(f(cons(nil, y)), z)) → copy(n, y, z)
copy(0, y, z) → f(z)
copy(s(x), y, z) → copy(x, y, cons(f(y), z))

Rewrite Strategy: INNERMOST

(9) CdtRuleRemovalProof (UPPER BOUND(ADD(n^1)) transformation)

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

COPY(s(z0), z1, z2) → c3(COPY(z0, z1, cons(f(z1), z2)))

We considered the (Usable) Rules:none
And the Tuples:

COPY(s(z0), z1, z2) → c3(COPY(z0, z1, cons(f(z1), z2)))

The order we found is given by the following interpretation:
Polynomial interpretation :

POL(COPY(x₁, x₂, x₃)) = x₁ + x₃   
POL(c3(x₁)) = x₁   
POL(cons(x₁, x₂)) = 0   
POL(f(x₁)) = 0   
POL(nil) = 0   
POL(s(x₁)) = [1] + x₁
