    Natural Language Statement

    Theorem

    There is a problem QQ to which EVEN reduces by an FO(DTC) reduction but by no ordered first-order reduction. The first-order reductions under which the complete problems of these submissions are complete are therefore strictly weaker than deterministic logarithmic-space reductions, in their logical form.
