This paper provides an alternate characterization of type-two polynomial-time computability, with the goal of making second-order complexity theory more approachable. We rely on the usual oracle machines to model programs with subroutine…
We collect and organise known results and add some new ones of the following nature: if A is a bounded operator in a Hilbert or Banach space, does there exist a nonconstant polynomial p(z) such that p(A) is "simpler", "nicer" than A. The…
When can a model of a physical system be regarded as computable? We provide the definition of a computable physical model to answer this question. The connection between our definition and Kreisel's notion of a mechanistic theory is…
This paper presents the Functional Machine Calculus (FMC) as a simple model of higher-order computation with "reader/writer" effects: higher-order mutable store, input/output, and probabilistic and non-deterministic computation. The FMC…
We investigate partial functions and computability theory from within a constructive, univalent type theory. The focus is on placing computability into a larger mathematical context, rather than on a complete development of computability…
One of the key concepts in testing is that of adequate test sets. A test selection criterion decides which test sets are adequate. In this paper, a language schema for specifying a large class of test selection criteria is developed; the…
We introduce a quantum-like classical computational model, called affine computation, as a generalization of probabilistic computation. After giving the basics of affine computation, we define affine finite automata (AfA) and compare it…
Using tools from computable analysis we develop a notion of effectiveness for general dynamical systems as those group actions on arbitrary spaces that contain a computable representative in their topological conjugacy class. Most natural…
Looking at some monoids and (semi)rings (natural numbers, integers and p-adic integers), and more generally, residually finite algebras (in a strong sense), we prove the equivalence of two ways for a function on such an algebra to behave…
We study the effective potential for composite operators. Introducing a source coupled to the composite operator, we define the effective potential by a Legendre transformation. We find that in three or fewer dimensions, one can use the…
In this paper we define a new product-like binary operation on directed graphs, and we discuss some of its properties. We also briefly discuss its application in constructing the subtyping relation in generic nominally-typed object-oriented…
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…
The focus of these lecture notes is on abstract models and basic ideas and results that relate to the operational semantics of programming languages largely conceived. The approach is to start with an abstract description of the computation…
The fact that Applicative type class allows one to express simple parsers in a variable-less combinatorial style is well appreciated among Haskell programmers for its conceptual simplicity, ease of use, and usefulness for semi-automated…
In our recent publication we have proposed a new methodology for determination of the two-term Machin-like formula for pi with small arguments of the arctangent function of kind $$ \frac{\pi }{4} = {2^{k - 1}}\arctan \left(…
Abstract clones serve as an algebraic presentation of the syntax of a simple type theory. From the perspective of universal algebra, they define algebraic theories like those of groups, monoids and rings. This link allows one to study the…
We characterize when a subfactor $N\subseteq M$ is oracle computable relative to a presentation of the ambient factor $M$ in terms of computability of the Jones basic construction, in terms of computable Pismner-Popa bases, and in terms of…
A new definition for the Riemann zeta function for all positive integer number s > 1 is presented. We discover a most elegant expression and easy method for calculating the Riemann zeta function for small even integer values. Through this…
Our main result is the equivalence of two notions of reducibility between structures. One is a syntactical notion which is an effective version of interpretability as in model theory, and the other one is a computational notion which is a…
An important class of fractional differential and integral operators is given by the theory of fractional calculus with respect to functions, sometimes called $\Psi$-fractional calculus. The operational calculus approach has proved useful…
