Title
Abelian Permutation Group Problems and Logspace Counting Classes
Abstract
The goal of this paper is to classify abelian permutationgroup problems using logspace counting classes.Building on McKenzie and Cookýs [MC87] classification of permutation group problems into four NC^1 Turing-equivalent sets, we show that all these problemsare essentially captured by the generalized logspace modclassModL, where ModL is the logspace analogue ofModP (defined by Köbler and Toda [KT96]).More precisely, our results are as follows:1. For abelian permutation groups, the problems ofmembership testing, isomorphism testing and computingthe order of a group are all in ZPL^ModL, andare all hard for ModL under logspace Turing reductions.2. The problems of computing the intersection ofabelian permutation groups, and computing agenerator-relator presentation for a given abelianpermutation group are in FL^ModL /poly. Furthermore,the search version of membership testing isalso in FL^ModL /poly.
