We exhibit the following new upper bounds on the space complexity and the parallel complexity of the Bipartite Perfect Matching (BPM) problem for graphs of small genus: (1) BPM in planar graphs is in UL (improves upon the SPL bound from Datta et. al. [7]); (2) BPM in constant genus graphs is in NL (orthogonal to the SPL bound from Datta et. al. [8]); (3) BPM in poly-logarithmic genus graphs is in NC; (extends the NC bound for O(log n) genus graphs from Mahajan and Varadarajan [22], and Kulkarni et. al. [19]. For Part (1) we combine the flow technique of Miller and Naor [23] with the double counting technique of Reinhardt and Allender [27]. For Part (2) and (3) we extend [23] to higher genus surfaces in the spirit of Chambers, Erickson and Nayyeri [4]. |
