The {\em diagonalization technique} was invented by Georg Cantor to show that there are more real numbers than algebraic numbers and is very crucial in {\em theoretical computer science}. In this work, we enumerate all of the…

There is an important and interesting open question in computational complexity on the relation between the complexity classes $\mathcal{NP}$ and $\mathcal{PSPACE}$. It is a widespread belief that $\mathcal{NP}\ne\mathcal{PSPACE}$. In this…

In this paper, we extend the techniques used in our previous work to show that there exists a probabilistic Turing machine running within time $O(n^k)$ for all $k\in\mathbb{N}_1$ accepting a language $L_d$ that is different from any…

In this paper, we examine Lin's "On NP versus coNP and Frege Systems" [Lin25]. Lin claims to prove that $\text{NP} \neq \text{coNP}$ by constructing a language $L_d$ such that $L_d \in \text{NP}$ but $L_d \notin \text{coNP}$. We present a…

We investigate computational resources used by Turing machines (TMs) and alternating Turing machines (ATMs) to accept languages generated by coordinated table selective substitution systems with two components. We prove that the class of…

Continuing the study of complexity theory of Koepke's Ordinal Turing Machines (OTMs) that was started by Rin, L\"owe and the author, we prove the following results: (1) An analogue of Ladner's theorem for OTMs holds: That is, there are…

The power of real-time Turing machines using sublinear space is investigated. In contrast to a claim appearing in the literature, such machines can accept non-regular languages, even if working in deterministic mode. While maintaining a…

LS is a particular type of computational processes simulating living tissue. They use an unlimited branching process arising from the simultaneous substitutions of some words instead of letters in some initial word. This combines the…

In this paper we consider the time and the crossing sequence complexities of one-tape off-line Turing machines. We show that the running time of each nondeterministic machine accepting a nonregular language must grow at least as n\log n, in…

We show that there cannot be any algorithm that for a given nondeterministic polynomial-time Turing machine determinates whether or not the language recognized by this machine belongs to P

We show that all languages accepted in time f(n) >= n^2 can be accepted in space O(f(n)^{1/2})_and_ in time O(f(n)). The proof is carried out by simulation, based on the idea of guessing the sequences of internal states of the simulated TM…

Savitch showed in $1970$ that nondeterministic logspace (NL) is contained in deterministic $\mathcal{O}(\log^2 n)$ space but his algorithm requires quasipolynomial time. The question whether we can have a deterministic algorithm for every…

Any class of languages $\mathbf{L}$ accepted in time $\mathbf{T}$ has a counterpart $\mathbf{NL}$ accepted in nondeterministic time $\mathbf{NT}$. It follows from the definition of nondeterministic languages that $\mathbf{L} \subseteq…
