For any fixed $k$, a remarkably simple single-tape Turing machine can simulate $k$ independent counters in real time. Informally, a counter is a storage unit that maintains a single integer (initially 0), incrementing it, decrementing it,…

The capacity of finite state channels (FSCs) has been established as the limit of a sequence of multi-letter expressions only and, despite tremendous effort, a corresponding finite-letter characterization remains unknown to date. This paper…

Traditional Turing machines are semantically poor, they only concern the syntactic manipulation of symbols, discarding the mathematical semantics behind the symbols. This semantic deficiency is considered the root cause of the three major…

Quantum Turing machines are discussed and reviewed in this paper. Most of the paper is concerned with processes defined by a step operator $T$ that is used to construct a Hamiltonian $H$ according to Feynman's prescription. Differences…

We introduce a new type of generalized Turing machines (GTMs), which are intended as a tool for the mathematician who studies computability in Analysis. In a single tape cell a GTM can store a symbol, a real number, a continuous real…

We consider the problem of minimising the number of states in a multiplicity tree automaton over the field of rational numbers. We give a minimisation algorithm that runs in polynomial time assuming unit-cost arithmetic. We also show that a…

This article describes a Turing machine which can solve for $\beta^{'}$ which is RE-complete. RE-complete problems are proven to be undecidable by Turing's accepted proof on the Entscheidungsproblem. Thus, constructing a machine which…

In a variety of studies of dynamical systems, the edge of order and chaos has been singled out as a region of complexity. It was suggested by Wolfram, on the basis of qualitative behaviour of cellular automata, that the computational basis…

In the category of free arrangements, inductively and recursively free arrangements are important. In particular, in the former, the conjecture by Terao asserting that freeness depends only on combinatorics holds true. A long standing…

Many NLP models operate over sequences of subword tokens produced by hand-crafted tokenization rules and heuristic subword induction algorithms. A simple universal alternative is to represent every computerized text as a sequence of bytes…

We propose a practical scheme to train a single multilingual sequence labeling model that yields state of the art results and is small and fast enough to run on a single CPU. Starting from a public multilingual BERT checkpoint, our final…

We prove that any Turing machine running on inputs of arbitrary length can be simulated by a constant bit-size transformer, as long as the context window is sufficiently long. This improves previous works, which require scaling up either…

Let $s$ be an integer, $f=f(n)$ a function, and $H$ a graph. Define the Ramsey-Tur\'an number $RT_s(n,H, f)$ as the maximum number of edges in an $H$-free graph $G$ of order $n$ with $\alpha_s(G) < f$, where $\alpha_s(G)$ is the maximum…

Finite-state independence is a robust notion of algorithmic independence for infinite words. It was introduced for general infinite words by Becher, Carton, and Heiber via deterministic asynchronous two-tape finite automata. \'Alvarez,…

While non-contextual hidden-variable theories are proved to be impossible, contextual ones are possible. In a contextual hidden-variable theory, an observable is called a beable if the hidden-variable assigns its value in a given…

The times of Brownian local minima, maxima and their union are three distinct examples of local, stationary, dense, random countable sets associated with classical Wiener noise. Being local means, roughly, determined by the local behavior…
