The run-time complexities of the operations on a doubly linked structure are typically double compared to the corresponding operations on the singly linked structure.

The run-time complexities of operations on doubly linked structures are generally the same as those on singly linked structures because the complexity is determined by the number of operations or steps required, not by the number of pointers updated. For example, insertion or deletion at a given position in both structures is O(n), where n is the number of elements in the list. The main difference is that a doubly linked list allows easier and more efficient backward traversal and deletion of the last element, but this does not double the complexity of operations compared to a singly linked list.
