Title
Syntactic Characterization in LISP of the Polynominal Complexity Classes and Hierarchy
Abstract
. The definition of a class C of functions is syntactic if membershipto C can be decided from the construction of its elements. Syntacticcharacterizations of PTIMEF, of PSPACEF, of the polynomial hierarchyPH, and of its subclasses \Deltapn are presented. They are obtained byprogressive restrictions of recursion in Lisp, and may be regarded aspredicative according to a foundational point raised by Leivant.1 IntroductionAt least since 1965 [6] people think to complexity in terms of...
