GapP is a counting complexity class, consisting of all of the functions ''f'' such that there exists a polynomial-time non-deterministic Turing machine In theoretical computer science, a nondeterministic Turing machine (NTM) is a theoretical model of computation whose governing rules specify more than one possible action when in some given situations. That is, an NTM's next state is ''not'' comp ... ''M'' where, for any input ''x'', ''f(x)'' is equal to the number of accepting paths of ''M'' minus the number of rejecting paths of ''M''. GapP is exactly the closure of #P under subtraction. It also has all the other closure properties of #P, such as addition, multiplication, and binomial coefficients. The counting class AWPP is defined in terms of GapP functions. References * S. Fenner, L. Fortnow, and S.

Roman Catholic Archdiocese Of Cologne
The Archdiocese of Cologne (; ) is a Latin Church archdiocese of the Catholic Church in western North Rhine-Westphalia and northern Rhineland-Palatinate in Germany. History At an early date Christianity came to Cologne with the Roman soldiers and traders. According to Irenaeus of Lyons, it was a bishop's see as early as the second century. However, Saint Maternus, a contemporary of Constantine I, is the first historically certain bishop of Cologne. As a result of its favourable situation, the city survived the stormy period around the fall of the Western Roman Empire. When the Franks took possession of the country in the fifth century, it became a royal residence. On account of the services of the bishops to the Merovingian kings, the city was to have been the metropolitan see of Saint Boniface, but Mainz was chosen, for unknown reasons, and Cologne did not become an archbishopric until the time of Charlemagne. The city suffered heavily from Viking invasions, especially in th ...
