Savitch's theorem at the log-space level. If a language A is decidable by
a nondeterministic TM in space O(log n), then it is decidable by a
deterministic TM in space O((log n)²). This is the instance of Savitch's
theorem NSPACE(f) ⊆ SPACE(f²) with f(n) = log n, used to derive
NL ⊆ SPACE(log² n).

NL ⊆ SPACE(log² n). Every language decidable in nondeterministic
logarithmic space is decidable in O((log n)²) deterministic space. Immediate
consequence of savitch_log applied to the definition InNL A := InNSPACE log A.
