Previously referred to as `miraculous' in the scientific literature because of its powerful properties and its wide application as optimal solution to the problem of induction/inference, (approximations to) Algorithmic Probability (AP) and…

This article expands our work in [Ca16]. By its reliance on Turing computability, the classical theory of effectivity, along with effective reducibility and Weihrauch reducibility, is only applicable to objects that are either countable or…

Bennett's notion of depth is usually considered to describe the usefulness and internal organization of the information encoded into an object such as an infinite binary sequence. We consider a natural way to relativize the notion of depth…

In this paper, assuming the low-degree conjecture, we provide evidence of computational hardness for two problems: (1) the (partial) matching recovery problem in the sparse correlated Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs $\mathcal G(n,q;\rho)$ when the…

We study algorithmic randomness notions via effective versions of almost-everywhere theorems from analysis and ergodic theory. The effectivization is in terms of objects described by a computably enumerable set, such as lower semicomputable…

We show that the class of conditional distributions satisfying the coarsening at random (CAR) property for discrete data has a simple and robust algorithmic description based on randomized uniform multicovers: combinatorial objects…

We present two theorems concerned with algorithmic randomness and differentiability of functions of several variables. Firstly, we prove an effective form of the Rademacher's Theorem: we show that computable randomness implies…

We prove that if $\vec{R}$ is a computable sequence of subsets of $\omega$ which admits no computable cohesive set, then no 3-generic computes any $\vec{R}$-cohesive set; and there exists a Martin-L\"{o}f random which computes no…

We show how complexity theory can be introduced in machine learning to help bring together apparently disparate areas of current research. We show that this new approach requires less training data and is more generalizable as it shows…

Nonuniformity is a central concept in computational complexity with powerful connections to circuit complexity and randomness. Nonuniform reductions have been used to study the isomorphism conjecture for NP and completeness for larger…

We study the computational content of various theorems with reverse mathematical strength around Arithmetical Transfinite Recursion ($\mathsf{ATR}_0$) from the point of view of computability-theoretic reducibilities, in particular Weihrauch…

We show that every correctable subsystem for an arbitrary noise operation can be recovered by a unitary operation, where the notion of recovery is more relaxed than the notion of correction insofar as it does not protect the subsystem from…

Computational pseudorandomness studies the extent to which a random variable $\bf{Z}$ looks like the uniform distribution according to a class of tests $\cal{F}$. Computational entropy generalizes computational pseudorandomness by studying…

A theorem of A.A. Brudno says that the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy of a subshift X over $\mathbb{N}$ with respect to an ergodic measure $\mu$ equals the asymptotic Kolmogorov complexity of almost every word $\omega$ in X. The purpose of this…

It is folklore particularly in numerical and computer sciences that, instead of solving some general problem f:A->B, additional structural information about the input x in A (that is any kind of promise that x belongs to a certain subset A'…

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…
