Abstract: We present properties of multihead two-way probabilistic finite automata that parallel
those of their deterministic and nondeterministic counterparts. We define multihead probabilistic
finite automata with log-space constructible transition probabilities, and we describe
a simple technique to simulate these automata by standard log-space probabilistic Turing
machines. Next, we represent log-space probabilistic complexity classes as proper hierarchies
based on corresponding multihead two-way... (Update)

...from the next two lemmas. Slightly different proofs for these lemmas and other variations of this theorem can be found in [Ma93b]. The proofs for the other two claims are similar. 2 Lemma 1 S 1 k=1 kPFA = PrSpace rat (log n) Proof. The proof is an adaptation of the proof...
...On the other hand, the methods from [Ne63] Di90] do not work for other easy to construct transition probabilities. In contrast, in [Ma94c] there are presented techniques that handle transition probabilities given by real numbers constructible in log space. Consequently,...
