Building on our prior work on axiomatization of exact real computation by formalizing nondeterministic first-order partial computations over real and complex numbers in a constructive dependent type theory, we present a framework for…

We consider topological quantum memories for a general class of abelian anyon models defined on spin lattices. These are non-universal for quantum computation when restricting to topological operations alone, such as braiding and fusion.…

Inspired by Quantum Mechanics, we reformulate Hilbert's tenth problem in the domain of integer arithmetics into problems involving either a set of infinitely-coupled non-linear differential equations or a class of linear Schr\"odinger…

Computability theory is a discipline in the intersection of computer science and mathematical logic where the fundamental question is: given two mathematical objects X and Y, does X compute Y in principle? In case X and Y are real numbers,…

We introduce a new, demand-driven variant of Spector's bar recursion in the spirit of the Berardi-Bezem-Coquand functional. The recursion takes place over finite partial functions $u$, where the control parameter $\varphi$, used in…

We give a simple order-theoretic construction of a Cartesian closed category of sequential functions. It is based on bistable biorders, which are sets with a partial order -- the extensional order -- and a bistable coherence, which captures…

For separable metrizable spaces $X,Y$ and a metrizable topological group $Z$ by $S(X\times Y,Z)$ we denote the space of all separately continuous functions $f:X\times Y\to Z$ endowed with the topology of layer-wise uniform convergence,…

A numerical algorithm that computes the decomposition of any finite-dimen\-sio\-nal unitary reducible representation of a compact Lie group is presented. The algorithm, which does not rely on an algebraic insight on the group structure, is…

Rice's theorem shows that nontrivial extensional properties of partial recursive functions are undecidable. For finite weighted Boolean optimization/CSP-style slices, a Rice-style structural analogue holds for tractability classification:…

We study topology, particularly compactness, as an extension of Shulman's work on constructive mathematics via affine logic, while allowing propositional impredicativity. We introduce a notion of compactness in affine logic and prove the…

Let us denote by $\Phi(\lambda,\mu)$ the statement that $\mathbb{B}(\lambda) = D(\lambda)^\omega$, i.e. the Baire space of weight $\lambda$, has a coloring with $\mu$ colors such that every homeomorphic copy of the Cantor set $\mathbb{C}$…

A central topic in mathematical logic is the classification of theorems from mathematics in hierarchies according to their logical strength. Ideally, the place of a theorem in a hierarchy does not depend on the representation (aka coding)…

This paper defines a new notion of bounded computable randomness for certain classes of sub-computable functions which lack a universal machine. In particular, we define such versions of randomness for primitive recursive functions and for…

Turing's famous 'machine' framework provides an intuitively clear conception of 'computing with real numbers'. A recursive counterexample to a theorem shows that the theorem does not hold when restricted to computable objects. These…

Non-semisimple extensions of the Ising anyon model developed in our previous work enable universal topological quantum computation via braiding alone, overcoming the Clifford-only limitation of semisimple theories. The non-semisimple theory…

By the sometimes so-called 'Main Theorem' of Recursive Analysis, every computable real function is necessarily continuous. We wonder whether and which kinds of HYPERcomputation allow for the effective evaluation of also discontinuous…
