For several well-studied combinatorial structures, counting can be reduced to the computation of a determinant, which is known to be in NC [Csa75].

We investigate whether or not it is possible to solve the following problems in $n^{1+o(1)}$ time for a $\mathsf{K}$-graph $G_P$ when $d < n^{o(1)}$: $\bullet$ Multiply a given vector by the adjacency matrix or Laplacian matrix of $G_P$ $\bullet$ Find a spectral sparsifier of $G_P$ $\bullet$ Solve a Laplacian system in $G_P$'s Laplacian matrix For each of these problems, we consider all functions of the form $\mathsf{K}(u, v) = f(\|u-v\|_2^2)$ for a function $f:\mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$.
