Title
A note on the hardness of tree isomorphism
Abstract
We prove that the tree isomorphism problem, when trees are encoded as strings, is NC1-hard under DLOGTIME-reductions. NC1 -completeness thus follows from Buss's recent NC1 upper bound. By contrast, we prove that testing isomorphism of two trees encoded as pointer lists is L-complete
