Title: A Random Walk Down Full Memory Lane Abstract: Can full memory be an asset to computation? This is the question underlying catalytic computing (Buhrman et al. 2014), a recent paradigm in which a space-bounded machine has access to additional read-write catalytic memory, which is much larger than the regular work tape but whose initial contents must be reset by the computation. We survey major techniques and results in the field by proving BPL is contained in CL, i.e. how to estimate random walk distributions using a catalytic tape. We will see three distinct proofs: 1) compression-based (Dulek 2015) 2) arithmetic reversibility (Buhrman et al. 2014); and 3) a simple algorithm using ideas from both (Cook-Pyne 2025).
Ian's talk will be a survey on catalytic computation: see abstract below.
