Abstract: We establish a general connection between fixpoint logic and complexity. On one side,
we have fixpoint logic, parameterized by the choices of 1st-order operators (inflationary or
noninflationary) and iteration constructs (deterministic, nondeterministic, or alternating).
On the other side, we have the complexity classes between P and EXPTIME. Our parameterized
fixpoint logics capture the complexity classes P, NP, PSPACE, and EXPTIME, but
equality is achieved only over ordered structures.
