Kleene's computability theory based on the S1-S9 computation schemes constitutes a model for computing with objects of any finite type and extends Turing's 'machine model' which formalises computing with real numbers. A fundamental…

We conjecture that every infinite group $G$ can be partitioned into countably many cells $G=\bigcup_{n\in\omega}A_n$ such that $cov(A_nA_n^{-1})=|G|$ for each $n\in\omega$. Here $cov(A)=\min\{|X|:X\subseteq G, G=XA\}$. We confirm this…

Let s(A) denote the number of automorphisms of a model A of power omega_1. We derive a necessary and sufficient condition in terms of trees for the existence of an A with omega_1 < s(A) < 2^{omega_1}. We study the sufficiency of some…

A cohesive power of a computable structure is an effective ultrapower where a cohesive set acts as an ultrafilter. Let $\omega$, $\zeta$, and $\eta$ denote the respective order-types of the natural numbers, the integers, and the rationals.…

Let $F_{\omega_1}$ be the countable admissible ordinal equivalence relation defined on ${}^\omega 2$ by $x \ F_{\omega_1} \ y$ if and only if $\omega_1^x = \omega_1^y$. It will be shown that $F_{\omega_1}$ is classifiable by countable…

Generic computability has been studied in group theory and we now study it in the context of classical computability theory. A set A of natural numbers is generically computable if there is a partial computable function f whose domain has…

Starting with Zhang's theorem on the infinitude of prime doubles, we give an inductive argument that there exists an infinite number of prime $k$-tuples for at least one admissible set $\mathcal{H}_k=\{h_1,\ldots,h_k\}$ for each $k$.

Let T be an algebraically bounded theory. We consider the $L(\bar\delta)$-expansions of T by a tuple $\bar \delta$ of derivations (which may be commuting or not). We investigate the model completion of either of the above theories, whose…

The paper studies computability-theoretic aspects of topological $T_0$-spaces. We introduce effective versions of the notions of a countable $c$-poset and a (second-countable) topological space with base. Based on this, we prove an…

The Turing machine, as it was presented by Turing himself, models the calculations done by a person. This means that we can compute whatever any Turing machine can compute, and therefore we are Turing complete. The question addressed here…

We extend a dichotomy between 1-basedness and supersimplicity proved in a previous paper. The generalization we get is to arbitrary language, with no restrictions on the topology (we do not demand type-definabilty of the open set in the…

Graceful tree conjecture is a well-known open problem in graph theory. Here we present a computational approach to this conjecture. An algorithm for finding graceful labelling for trees is proposed. With this algorithm, we show that every…

Let E be an arbitrary directed graph with no restrictions on the number of vertices and edges and let K be any field. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the Leavitt path algebra L_K(E) to be of countable irreducible…

We show that arithmetical transfinite recursion is equivalent to a suitable formalization of the following: For every ordinal $\alpha$ there exists an ordinal $\beta$ such that $1+\beta\cdot(\beta+\alpha)$ (ordinal arithmetic) admits an…

We continue the investigation of analytic spaces from the perspective of computable structure theory. We show that if $p \geq 1$ is a computable real, and if $\Omega$ is a nonzero, non-atomic, and separable measure space, then every…

In computability theory and computable analysis, finite programs can compute infinite objects. Presenting a computable object via any program for it, provides at least as much information as presenting the object itself, written on an…

Many graph coloring proofs proceed by showing that a minimal counterexample to the theorem being proved cannot contain certain configurations, and then showing that each graph under consideration contains at least one such configuration;…

The theoretical existence of Busy Beaver numbers provides a new notion for decidability and corresponding heuristic for conjectures. The minimum number of states in which a conjecture can be modeled gives a classification of what logic…

We prove that every computably enumerable (c.e.) random real is provable in Peano Arithmetic (PA) to be c.e. random. A major step in the proof is to show that the theorem stating that "a real is c.e. and random iff it is the halting…

We introduce a topology on the space of all isomorphism types represented in a given class of countable models, and use this topology as an aid in classifying the isomorphism types. This mixes ideas from effective descriptive set theory and…
