Antimirov has proved a nice size bound of the size of partial derivatives. Roughly speaking the size will not exceed the fourth power of the number of nodes in that regular expression. Interestingly, we observed from experiment that after the simplification step, our regular expression has the same size or is smaller than the partial derivatives. This allows us to prove a tight bound on the size of regular expression during the running time of the algorithm if we can establish the connection between our simplification rules and partial derivatives.
