Abstract

Dynamic complexity asks for the effort needed to maintain the information about properties of a structure under operations changing the structure. This paper introduces a refined notion of dynamic problems which takes the initial structure into account. It develops the basic structural complexity notions accordingly. It also shows that the dynamic version of the LOGCFL-complete problem D2LREACH can be maintained with first-order updates.
