摘要:We investigate the space complexity of certain perfect matching
problems over bipartite graphs embedded on surfaces of constant genus
(orientable or non-orientable). We show that the problems of deciding
whether such graphs have (1) a perfect matching or not and (2) a
unique perfect matching or not, are in the logspace complexity class
\SPL. Since \SPL\ is contained in the logspace counting classes
\L (in fact in \modk\ for all k2), \CeqL, and \PL, our
upper bound places the above-mentioned matching problems in these
counting classes as well. We also show that the search version,
computing a perfect matching, for this class of graphs is in
\FL\SPL. Our results extend the same upper bounds for these
problems over bipartite planar graphs known earlier.
