Abstract
A deterministic sublinear space, polynomial-time algorithm for directed s -t connectivity, which is the problem of detecting whether there is a path from vertex s to vertex t in a directed graph, is presented. For n -vertex graphs, the algorithm can use as little as n /2Θ(√log n ) space while still running in polynomial time
