We establish the first polynomial-strength time-space lower bounds for problems in the linear-time hierarchy on randomized machines with bounded two-sided error. We show that for any integer ℓ > 1 and constant
c
< ℓ, there exists a positive constant
d
such that QSAT
ℓ
cannot be computed by such machines in time
n
c
and space
n
d
, where QSAT
ℓ
denotes the problem of deciding the validity of a Boolean first-order formula with at most ℓ–1 quantifier alternations. Corresponding to ℓ = 1, we prove that for any constant
c
<
φ
≈ 1.618, there exists a positive constant
d
such that the set of Boolean tautologies cannot be decided by a randomized machine with one-sided error in time
