We prove that a real x is 1-generic if and only if every differentiable computable function has continuous derivative at x. This provides a counterpart to recent results connecting effective notions of randomness with differentiability. We…

We show that part I of uniform Martin's conjecture follows from a local phenomenon, namely that if a non-constant Turing invariant function goes from the Turing degree $\boldsymbol x$ to the Turing degree $\boldsymbol y$, then $\boldsymbol…

A real is called integer-valued random if no integer-valued martingale can win arbitrarily much capital betting against it. A real is low for integer-valued randomness if no integer-valued martingale recursive in A can succeed on an…

A semi-measure is a generalization of a probability measure obtained by relaxing the additivity requirement to super-additivity. We introduce and study several randomness notions for left-c.e. semi-measures, a natural class of effectively…

Algorithmic theories of randomness can be related to theories of probabilistic sequence prediction through the notion of a predictor, defined as a function which supplies lower bounds on initial-segment probabilities of infinite sequences.…

A concept of randomness for infinite time register machines (ITRMs), resembling Martin-L\"of-randomness, is defined and studied. In particular, we show that for this notion of randomness, computability from mutually random reals implies…

Partiality is a natural phenomenon in computability that we cannot get around. So, the question is whether we can give the areas where partiality occurs, that is, where non-termination happens, more structure. In this paper we consider…

Suppose we are given a computably enumerable object arise from algorithmic randomness or computable analysis. We are interested in the strength of oracles which can compute an object that approximates this c.e. object. It turns out that,…

We reformulate slightly Russell's notion of typicality, so as to eliminate its circularity and make it applicable to elements of any first-order structure. We argue that the notion parallels Martin-L\"{o}f (ML) randomness, in the sense that…

We show that the counts of low degree irreducible factors of a random polynomial $f$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ with independent but non-uniform coefficients behave like that of a uniform random polynomial, exhibiting a form of universality for…

In this paper, we will generalize the definition of partially random or complex reals, and then show the duality of random and complex, i.e., a generalized version of Levin-Schnorr's theorem. We also study randomness from the view point of…

This paper explores a novel definition of Schnorr randomness for noncomputable measures. We say $x$ is uniformly Schnorr $\mu$-random if $t(\mu,x)<\infty$ for all lower semicomputable functions $t(\mu,x)$ such that $\mu\mapsto\int…

We give upper bound for several highness properties in computability randomness theory. First, we prove that discrete covering property does not imply the ability to compute a 1-random real, answering a question of Greenberg, Miller and…

Randomness in the sense of Martin-L\"of can be defined in terms of lower semicomputable supermartingales. We show that such a supermartingale cannot be replaced by a pair of supermartingales that bet only on the even bits (the first one)…

Let $f$ be sampled uniformly at random from the set of degree $n$ polynomials whose coefficients lie in $\{ \pm 1\}$. A folklore conjecture, known to hold under GRH, states that the probability that $f$ is irreducible tends to $1$ as $n$…

We show, in a formal way, how a class of complex quasiprobability distribution functions may be introduced by using the fractional Fourier transform. This leads to the Fresnel transform of a characteristic function instead of the usual…

A fruitful way of obtaining meaningful, possibly concrete, algorithmically random numbers is to consider a potential behaviour of a Turing machine and its probability with respect to a measure (or semi-measure) on the input space of binary…

We show that if a set $A$ is computable from every superlow 1-random set, then $A$ is strongly jump-traceable. This theorem shows that the computably enumerable (c.e.) strongly jump-traceable sets are exactly the c.e.\ sets computable from…

Let $p$ be a prime and let $S$ be a non-empty subset of $\mathbb{F}_p$. Generalizing a result of Green and Tao on the equidistribution of high-rank polynomials over finite fields, we show that if $P: \mathbb{F}_p^n \rightarrow \mathbb{F}_p$…

We study the complexity classes P and NP through a semigroup fP ("polynomial-time functions"), consisting of all polynomially balanced polynomial-time computable partial functions. Then P is not equal to NP iff fP is a non-regular…
