Abstract

We provide a new correctness criterion for unit-free MLL proof structures and MELL proof structures with units. We prove that deciding the correctness of a MLL and of a MELL proof structure is NL-complete. We also prove that deciding the correctness of an intuitionistic multiplicative essential net is NL-complete.
