Solovay reducibility implies S2a-reducibility

Abstract

The original notion of Solovay reducibility was introduced by Robert M. Solovay (unpublished notes) in 1975 as a measure of relative randomness. The S2a-reducibility introduced by Xizhong Zheng and Robert Rettinger (DOI:10.1007/978-3-540-27798-9_39) in 2004 is a modification of Solovay reducibility suitable for computably approximable (c.a.) reals. We demonstrate that Solovay reducibility implies S2a-reducibility on the set of c.a. reals, even with the same constant, but not vice versa.
