FUNCTIONS ON GROUPS AND COMPUTATIONAL COMPLEXITY
FUNCTIONS ON GROUPS AND COMPUTATIONAL COMPLEXITY
We give some connections between various functions defined on finitely presented groups (isoperimetric, isodiametric, Todd–Coxeter radius, filling length functions, etc.), and we study the relation between those functions and the computational complexity of the word problem (deterministic time, nondeterministic time, symmetric space). We show that the isoperimetric function can always …
