ZPP (complexity) - Connection To Other Classes

Connection To Other Classes

Since ZPP = RPcoRP, ZPP is obviously contained in both RP and coRP.

The class P is contained in ZPP, and some computer scientists have conjectured that P = ZPP, i.e., every Las Vegas algorithm has a deterministic polynomial-time equivalent.

A proof for ZPP = EXPTIME (though that is almost certainly false) would imply that PZPP, as PEXPTIME (see time hierarchy theorem).

Famous quotes containing the words connection and/or classes:

    It may comfort you to know that if your child reaches the age of eleven or twelve and you have a good bond or relationship, no matter how dramatic adolescence becomes, you children will probably turn out all right and want some form of connection to you in adulthood.
    Charlotte Davis Kasl (20th century)

    Journalists belong in the gutter because that is where the ruling classes throw their guilty secrets.
    Gerald Priestland (b. 1927)
