(** * Length-bounding polynomial for Cobham expressions  - The lemma [poly_Cobham_correct] states that the output of an expression [e] is bounded by the polynomial [poly_Cobham e]. *)
Fixpoint poly_Cobham (e : Cobham) :=
match e with
| Zero => pcst 0 0
| Proj n i => pproj n i
| Succ b => pplus (pcst 0 1) (pproj 1 0)
| Smash => pplus (pcst 0 1) (pmult (pproj 2 0) (pproj 2 1))

| Comp n h l =>
