In the first part we propose a complete problem for log n tape bounded probabilistic Turing machines, which interprets the nature of space bounded probabilistic computations as some kind of classical well-known iteration algorithms for solving systems of linear equations. In the second part, we give fast circuits for the inversion of matrices with small bandwidth. As a corollary we obtain new upper bounds for the tape used in the simulation of probabilistic tape bounded Turing machines by deterministic ones.
