Abstract

The notion of generic reducibility was introduced by A.Rybalov in his CiE 2018 paper: a set A is generically reducible to set B if there exists a total computable function f that m-reduces A to B such that the f-preimage of every set that has density 0 has density 0. It may be considered as the ``generic version'' of the notion of m-reducibility. In this note we improve one of his results and show that every two computable sets that do not have density 0 or 1 are equivalent with respect to generic reducibility, and that every computable set is reducible to every computable set that does not have density 0 or 1, thus providing a complete classification of computable sets with respect to generic reducibility.
