Zusammenfassung:Abstract: "Though Berman and others have provided powerful techniques to collapse nondeterministic degrees at and above nondeterministic linear space, and Immerman and Szelepcsényi have provided techniques that collapse even sublinear nondeterministic space classes, it has remained an open problem whether any collapses could be proven for sublinear nondeterministic space degrees. This paper provides the first such collapses. For nondeterministic space classes C above NL, we show that all [formula]-complete sets for C collapse to a single [formula] degree (i.e., all [formula]-complete sets for C are [formula]-equivalent), and that all [formula]-complete sets for C are NL-isomorphic (and thus P- isomorphic). Our techniques sharply improve previous results for PSPACE."
