We extend in a natural way the operation of Turing machines to infinite ordinal time, and investigate the resulting supertask theory of computability and decidability on the reals. The resulting computability theory leads to a notion of…
In this note the proof-theoretic ordinal of the well-ordering principle for the normal functions ${\sf g}$ on ordinals is shown to be equal to the least fixed point of ${\sf g}$. Moreover corrections to the previous paper are made.
Friedman and Stanley developed the notion of Borel reducibility and illustrated its use in comparing classification problems for some familiar classes of countable structures. For many embeddings, the fact that the embedding is $1-1$ on…
We consider different classes of combinatory structures related to Krivine realizability. We show, in the precise sense that they give rise to the same class of triposes, that they are equivalent for the purpose of modeling higher-order…
In this paper, we investigate the problem of synthesizing computable functions of infinite words over an infinite alphabet (data omega-words). The notion of computability is defined through Turing machines with infinite inputs which can…
The theory of classical realizability is a framework in which we can develop the proof-program correspondence. Using this framework, we show how to transform into programs the proofs in classical analysis with dependent choice and the…
In this paper we introduce hyperations and cohyperations, which are forms of transfinite iteration of ordinal functions. Hyperations are iterations of normal functions. Unlike iteration by pointwise convergence, hyperation preserves…
We study transfinite extensions of Japaridze's provability logic GLP and the well-founded relations that naturally occur within them. Every ordinal induces a partial order over the class of "words," which are iterated consistency statements…
In this note the well-ordering principle for the derivative of normal functions on ordinals is shown to be equivalent to the existence of arbitrarily large countable coded omega-models of the well-ordering principle for the function.
We consider extensions of the language of Peano arithmetic by transfinitely iterated truth definitions satisfying uniform Tarskian biconditionals. Without further axioms, such theories are known to be conservative extensions of the original…
The Carlson-Simpson lemma is a combinatorial statement occurring in the proof of the Dual Ramsey theorem. Formulated in terms of variable words, it informally asserts that given any finite coloring of the strings, there is an infinite…
We show that including degrees of a particular kind of provability in the search target for any theorem-prover in sufficiently powerful formal systems over finite-sized statements preserves well-definition and a sufficient consistency while…
We give a new simple proof of the decidability of the First Order Theory of (omega^omega^i,+) and the Monadic Second Order Theory of (omega^i,<), improving the complexity in both cases. Our algorithm is based on tree automata and a new…
We consider the computational strength of Power-OTMs, i.e., ordinal Turing machines equipped with a power set operator, and study a notion of realizability based on these machines. When parameters are allowed, these machines are, modulo…
Cohesive powers of computable structures are effective analogs of ultrapowers, where cohesive sets play the role of ultrafilters. Let $\omega$, $\zeta$, and $\eta$ denote the respective order-types of the natural numbers, the integers, and…
In arXiv:2208.12944 it is shown that an ordinal $\sup_{N<\omega}\psi_{\Omega_{1}}(\varepsilon_{\Omega_{\mathbb{S}+N}+1})$ is an upper bound for the proof-theoretic ordinal of a set theory ${\sf KP}\ell^{r}+(M\prec_{\Sigma_{1}}V)$. In this…
Caucal hierarchy is a well-known class of graphs with decidable monadic theories. It were proved by L. Braud and A. Carayol that well-orderings in the hierarchy are the well-orderings with order types less than $\varepsilon_0$. Naturally,…
One of the fundamental results in computability is the existence of well-defined functions that cannot be computed. In this paper we study the effects of data representation on computability; we show that, while for each possible way of…
A computable structure $\mathcal{A}$ has degree of categoricity $\mathbf{d}$ if $\mathbf{d}$ is exactly the degree of difficulty of computing isomorphisms between isomorphic computable copies of $\mathcal{A}$. Fokina, Kalimullin, and Miller…
While there is a well-established notion of what a computable ordinal is, the question which functions on the countable ordinals ought to be computable has received less attention so far. We propose a notion of computability on the space of…
