It contains the most difficult or expressive problems in NLcomplexityNL . If a method exists for solving any one of the NL complete problems in L complexity logarithmic memory space , then NL L . One important NL complete problem is ST connectivity or Reachability Papadimitriou 1994 Thrm. 16.2 , the problem of determining whether, given a directed graph G and two nodes s and t on that graph, there is a path from s to t . ST connectivity can be seen to be in NL , because we start at the node s and nondeterministically walk to every other reachable node. ST connectivity can be seen to be NL hard by considering the computation state graph of any other NL algorithm, and considering that the other algorithm will accept if and only if there is a nondetermistic path from the starting state to an accepting state.

In computational complexity theory complexity theory , ZPL Zero error Probabilistic Logarithmic space is the set of problems solvable by a probabilistic Turing machine which always yields the correct answer and uses logarithmic space on average. Probabilistic algorithms that always give the correct answer are called Las Vegas algorithm s. Unlike its deterministic counterpart L complexity L , a ZPL machine can potentially use exponential time by exploiting randomness. If ZPL is restricted to polynomial time, we get the more interesting class ZPLP complexity ZPLP . A surprising result is that ZPL is equal to both RL complexity RL and NLcomplexityNL thus, if a problem can be solved in logarithmic space with nondeterminism or with one sided error, it can be solved with no error and logarithmic space on average.

In computational complexity theory , the complexity class FL is the set of function problem s which can be solved by a deterministic Turing machine in a logarithm ic amount of memory space . Citation needed date September 2009 As in the definition of L complexity L , the machine reads its input from a read only tape and writes its output to a write only tape the logarithmic space restriction applies only to the read write working tape. Loosely speaking, a function problem takes a complicated input and produces a perhaps equally complicated output. Function problems are distinguished from decision problem s, which produce only Yes or No answers. FL corresponds to the set L complexity L of decision problem s which can be solved in deterministic logspace. FL is a subset of FP complexity FP , the set of function problems which can be solved in deterministic polynomial time . FL is known to contain several natural problems, including the multiplication of two numbers. Similarly one may define FNL , which has the same relation with NLcomplexityNL as FNP complexity FNP has with NP complexity NP . References refbegin C. Alvarez and B. Jenner.

SIAM Journal on Computing, 18 3 559&ndash 578. 1989. ref is the complexity class of problems solvable in logarithmic space and polynomial time with probabilistic Turing machine s with one sided error . It is named in analogy with RP complexity RP , which is similar but has no logarithmic space restriction. The probabilistic Turing machines in the definition of RL never accept incorrectly but are allowed to reject incorrectly less than 1 3 of the time this is called one sided error . The constant 1 3 is arbitrary any x with 0 x 1 2 would suffice. This error can be made 2 sup p x sup times smaller for any polynomial p x without using more than polynomial time or logarithmic space by running the algorithm repeatedly. Sometimes the name RL is reserved for the class of problems solvable by logarithmic space probabilistic machines in unbounded time. However, this class can be shown to be equal to NLcomplexityNL using a probabilistic counter, and so is usually referred to as NL instead this also shows that RL is contained in NL . RL is contained in BPL complexity BPL , which is similar but allows two sided error incorrect accepts .

Equivalently, if we define decision problems as sets of finite strings, then the complement set theory complement of this set over some fixed domain is its complement problem. For example, one important problem is whether a number is a prime number . Its complement is to determine whether a number is a composite number a number which is not prime . Here the domain of the complement is the set of all integers exceeding one. There is a Turing reduction from every problem to its complement problem. The complement operation is an Involution mathematics involution , meaning it undoes itself , or the complement of the complement is the original problem. We can generalize this to the complement of a complexity class , called the complement class , which is the set of complements of every problem in the class.
