For $S\subseteq \mathbb{F}^n$, consider the linear space of restrictions of degree-$d$ polynomials to $S$. The Hilbert function of $S$, denoted $\mathrm{h}_S(d,\mathbb{F})$, is the dimension of this space. We obtain a tight lower bound on…

We summarize our recent findings, where we proposed a framework for learning a Kolmogorov model, for a collection of binary random variables. More specifically, we derive conditions that link outcomes of specific random variables, and…

We obtain Calder{\'o}n-Zygmund estimates for some degenerate equations of Kolmogorov type with inhomogeneous coefficients. We then derive the well-posedness of the martingale problem associated to related degenerate operators, and therefore…

Given a reference computer, Kolmogorov complexity is a well defined function on all binary strings. In the standard approach, however, only the asymptotic properties of such functions are considered because they do not depend on the…

The rate of randomness (or dimension) of a string $\sigma$ is the ratio $C(\sigma)/|\sigma|$ where $C(\sigma)$ is the Kolmogorov complexity of $\sigma$. While it is known that a single computable transformation cannot increase the rate of…

A bounded Kolmogorov-Loveland selection rule is an adaptive strategy for recursively selecting a subsequence of an infinite binary sequence; such a subsequence may be interpreted as the query sequence of a time-bounded Turing machine. In…

Link prediction in graphs is an important task in the fields of network science and machine learning. We investigate a flexible means of regularization for link prediction based on an approximation of the Kolmogorov complexity of graphs…

For a finite word $w$ we define and study the Kolmogorov structure function $h_w$ for nondeterministic automatic complexity. We prove upper bounds on $h_w$ that appear to be quite sharp, based on numerical evidence.
