Connection To Other Classes
Since ZPP = RP ∩ coRP, ZPP is obviously contained in both RP and coRP.
The class P is contained in ZPP, and some computer scientists have conjectured that P = ZPP, i.e., every Las Vegas algorithm has a deterministic polynomial-time equivalent.
A proof for ZPP = EXPTIME (though that is almost certainly false) would imply that P ≠ ZPP, as P ≠ EXPTIME (see time hierarchy theorem).

Famous quotes containing the words connection to, connection and/or classes:
“One must always maintain ones connection to the past and yet ceaselessly pull away from it. To remain in touch with the past requires a love of memory. To remain in touch with the past requires a constant imaginative effort.”
—Gaston Bachelard (18841962)
“The connection between dress and war is not far to seek; your finest clothes are those you wear as soldiers.”
—Virginia Woolf (18821941)
“When we of the so-called better classes are scared as men were never scared in history at material ugliness and hardship; when we put off marriage until our house can be artistic, and quake at the thought of having a child without a bank-account and doomed to manual labor, it is time for thinking men to protest against so unmanly and irreligious a state of opinion.”
—William James (18421910)
