Abstract

We characterize the gap between time and space complexity of functions by operators and completeness. First, we introduce a new notion of operators for function complexity classes based on recursive function theory and construct an operator which generates FP SPACE from FP. Then, we introduce new function classes composed of functions whose output lengths are bounded by the input length plus some constant. We characterize FP and FP SPACE by using these classes and operators. Finally, we define a new notion of completeness for FP SPACE and show a FP SPACE-complete function.
