Abstract
The computational complexity of bounded sets of the two-dimensional pl ane is studied in the discrete computational model. We introduce four notions of polynomial-time computable sets in R(2) and study their rel ationship. The computational complexity of the winding number problem, membership problem, distance problem, and area problem is characteriz ed by the relations between discrete complexity classes of the NP theo ry.
