Entropy of pebble automata and space complexity

Abstract

Let L denote the class Logpsace and NL the class NLogspace. We use logCFL to denote the closure under logspace reductions of the set of context-free languages. We prove that NL is different from logCFL. This result implies L different from Ptime and the stronger separation NL different from Ptime.
