This is the first of two papers devoted to connections between asymptotic functions of groups and computational complexity. In particular, we show how to construct a finitely presented group with NP-complete word problem. One of the main results of this paper states that if a real number cx > 4 is computable in time 0 then na is equivalent ( "big O" ) to the Dehn function of a finitely presented group. The smallest isodiametric function of this group is n3°8/4. On the other hand, if na is equivalent to the Dehn function of a finitely presented group then oe is computable in time 4 are equivalent to Dehn functions of some finitely presented groups and that n1r and na for all rational numbers oe > 3 are equivalent to the smallest isodiametric functions of finitely presented groups. Moreover, we describe all Dehn functions of finitely presented groups F n4 as time functions of Turing machines modulo two conjectures:
