We show that the constructive predicate logic with positive (covariant) quantification is hard for doubly exponential universal time, that is, for the class co-2-Nexptime. Our approach is to represent proof-search as computation of an alternating automaton. The memory of the automaton is structured in a way that strictly corresponds to scopes of the binders used in the constructed proof. This provides an application of automata-theoretic techniques in proof theory. |
