Abstract

We prove that the word problem for every monoid presented by a fixed 2-homogeneous semi-Thue system can be solved in log-space, which generalizes a result of Lipton and Zalcstein for free groups. The uniform word problem for the class of all 2-homogeneous semi-Thue systems is shown to be complete for symmetric log-space.
