The Tree Evaluation Problem (TreeEval) is a computational problem originally proposed as a candidate to prove a separation between complexity classes P and L. Recently, this problem has gained significant attention after Cook and Mertz (STOC 2024) showed that TreeEval can be solved using $O(\log n\log\log n)$ bits of space. ... more >>>
We define the notion of a catalytic-space computation. This is a computation that has a small amount of clean space available and is equipped with additional auxiliary space, with the caveat that the additional space is initially in an arbitrary, possibly incompressible, state and must be returned to this state ... more >>>
