This is a list of complexity classes in computational complexity theory. For other computational and complexity subjects, see list of computability and complexity topics. Many of these classes have a 'co' partner which consists of the complements of all languages in the original class. For example, if a language L is in NP then the complement of L is in co-NP. (This does not mean that the complement of NP is co-NP—there are languages which are known to be in both, and other languages which are known to be in neither.) "The hardest problems" of a class refer to problems which belong to the class such that every other problem of that class can be reduced to it.
