  • Abstract
    In this paper we study the complexity of bounded color multiplicity graph isomorphism BCGIb: the input is a pair of vertex-colored graphs such that the number of vertices of a given color in an input graph is bounded by b. We show that BCGIb is in the #L hierarchy (more precisely, the ModkL hierarchy for some constant k depending on b). Combined with the fact that bounded color multiplicity graph isomorphism is logspace many-one hard for every set in the ModkL hierarchy for any constant k, we get a tight classification of the problem using logspace-bounded counting classes.
