A measure for the complexity of a differentiable function f(x) on an interval is introduced. It is based on approximations of the function by piecewise constant functions. The measure takes into account the quality of the approximation and…
Consider a binary string $x$ of length $n$ whose Kolmogorov complexity is $\alpha n$ for some $\alpha<1$. We want to increase the complexity of $x$ by changing a small fraction of bits in $x$. This is always possible: Buhrman, Fortnow,…
We reconsider some classical natural semantics of integers (namely iterators of functions, cardinals of sets, index of equivalence relations), in the perspective of Kolmogorov complexity. To each such semantics one can attach a simple…
This paper studies higher index theory for a random sequence of bounded degree, finite graphs with diameter tending to infinity. We show that in a natural model for such random sequences the following hold almost surely: the coarse…
We solve the covering problem for Demuth randomness, showing that a computably enumerable set is computable from a Demuth random set if and only if it is strongly jump-traceable. We show that on the other hand, the class of sets which form…
Recently the adaption problem of Information-Based Complexity (IBC) for linear problems in the randomized setting was solved in Heinrich (J. Complexity 82, 2024, 101821). Several papers treating further aspects of this problem followed.…
We prove a strong Symmetry of Information relation for random strings (in the sense of Kolmogorov complexity) and establish tight bounds on the amount on nonuniformity that is necessary for extracting a string with randomness rate 1 from a…
We consider limit probabilities of first order properties in random graphs with a given degree sequence. Under mild conditions on the degree sequence, we show that the closure set of limit probabilities is a finite union of closed…
A constructive version of Hausdorff dimension is developed using constructive supergales, which are betting strategies that generalize the constructive supermartingales used in the theory of individual random sequences. This constructive…
An explicit bound is given for the Kolmogorov distance between a mixture of normal distributions and a normal distribution with properly chosen parameter values. A random variable X has a mixture of normal distributions if its conditional…
We investigate enumerability properties for classes of sets which permit recursive, lexicographically increasing approximations, or left-r.e. sets. In addition to pinpointing the complexity of left-r.e. Martin-L\"{o}f, computably, Schnorr,…
We aim at enforcing hard constraints to impose a global structure on sequences generated from Markov models. In this report, we study the complexity of sampling Markov sequences under two classes of constraints: Binary Equalities and…
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…
One major open conjecture in the area of critical random graphs, formulated by statistical physicists, and supported by a large amount of numerical evidence over the last decade [23, 24, 28, 63] is as follows: for a wide array of random…
When an experimentalist measures a time series of qubits, the outcomes generate a classical stochastic process. We show that measurement induces high complexity in these processes in two specific senses: they are inherently unpredictable…
We show that numerical approximations of Kolmogorov complexity (K) applied to graph adjacency matrices capture some group-theoretic and topological properties of graphs and empirical networks ranging from metabolic to social networks. That…
We critically analyse a recent numerical method due to the first author, Rechnitzer and van Rensburg, which attempts to detect amenability or non-amenability in a finitely generated group by numerically estimating its asymptotic cogrowth…
We study existence of random elements with partially specified distributions. The technique relies on the existence of a positive extension for linear functionals accompanied by additional conditions that ensure the regularity of the…
An important first step in computational SAR modeling is to transform the compounds into a representation that can be processed by predictive modeling techniques. This is typically a feature vector where each feature indicates the presence…
Motivated in part by various sequences of graphs growing under random rules (like internet models), convergent sequences of dense graphs and their limits were introduced by Borgs, Chayes, Lov\'asz, S\'os and Vesztergombi and by Lov\'asz and…
