In the standard model of computing multi-output functions in logspace ($\text{FL}$), we are given a read-only tape holding $x$ and a logarithmic length worktape, and must print $f(x)$ to a dedicated write-only tape. However, there has been extensive work (both in theory and in practice) on in-place algorithms for ... more >>>

In a seminal work, Buhrman et al. (STOC 2014) defined the class $CSPACE(s,c)$ of problems solvable in space $s$ with an additional catalytic tape of size $c$, which is a tape whose initial content must be restored at the end of the computation. They showed that uniform $TC^1$ circuits are ... more >>>

A catalytic machine is a space-bounded Turing machine with additional access to a second, much larger work tape, with the caveat that this tape is full, and its contents must be preserved by the computation. Catalytic machines were defined by Buhrman et al. (STOC 2014), who, alongside many follow-up works, ... more >>>
