The problems of computing single-valued, analytic branches of the logarithm and square root functions on a bounded, simply connected domain
S
are studied. If the boundary
$\partial S$
of
S
is a polynomial-time computable Jordan curve, the complexity of these problems can be characterized by counting classes #
P
,
MP
(or
MidBitP
), and ⊕
P
: The logarithm problem is polynomial-time solvable if and only if
FP
=#
P
. For the square root problem, it has been shown to have the upper bound
P
MP
and lower bound
P
⊕ P
. That is, if
P
=
MP
then the square root problem is polynomial-time solvable, and if
$P\not= \oplus P$
then the square root problem is not polynomial-time solvable.
