We study randomness beyond $\Pi^1_1$-randomness and its Martin-L\"of type variant, introduced in \cite{MR2340241} and further studied in \cite{Continuous-higher-randomness}. The class given by the infinite time Turing machines (\ITTM s),…

Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) is a fundamental structure in deep learning. Recently, some works study the training process of over-parameterized neural networks, and show that over-parameterized networks can learn functions in some notable…

We show that there exists a bounded pattern of m consecutive primes for any m>0, that means a tuple H_m of m distinct non-negative integers h_i (i=1,2,...m) such that its translations contain arbitrarily long (finite) arithmetic…

By a theorem of Sacks, if a real $x$ is recursive relative to all elements of a set of positive Lebesgue measure, $x$ is recursive. This statement, and the analogous statement for non-meagerness instead of positive Lebesgue measure, have…

The call-by-value language RML may be viewed as a canonical restriction of Standard ML to ground-type references, augmented by a "bad variable" construct in the sense of Reynolds. We consider the fragment of (finitary) RML terms of order at…

We show that for a random polynomial \[ F(X) = \sum_{n=1}^{N} f(n) X^{n-1}, \] where $f(n)$ is a random completely multiplicative function taking values in $\{\pm 1\}$, one has \[ \limsup_{N \to \infty} \mathbb{P}\big[F(X) \text{ is…

The notion of random sequence was introduced by Martin-Loef in 1966. At the same time he defined the so-called randomness deficiency function that shows how close are random sequences to non-random (in some natural sense). Other deficiency…

In a prequential approach to algorithmic randomness, probabilities for the next outcome can be forecast `on the fly' without the need for fully specifying a probability measure on all possible sequences of outcomes, as is the case in the…

We construct a point set in the Euclidean plane that elucidates the relationship between the fine-scale statistics of the fractional parts of $\sqrt n$ and directional statistics for a shifted lattice. We show that the randomly rotated, and…

Linear-constraint loops are programs whose transition relation is specified by a system of linear inequalities. The termination problem asks, given a loop, whether it admits an infinite computation. Decidability of termination remains open…

The Ku\v{c}era-G\'acs theorem is a landmark result in algorithmic randomness asserting that every real is computable from a Martin-L\"of random real. If the computation of the first $n$ bits of a sequence requires $n+h(n)$ bits of the…

This expository paper advocates an approach to physics in which ``typicality" is identified with a suitable form of algorithmic randomness. To this end various theorems from mathematics and physics are reviewed. Their original versions…

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…

This paper investigates $\exists\mathbb{R}(r^{\mathbb{Z}})$, that is the extension of the existential theory of the reals by an additional unary predicate $r^{\mathbb{Z}}$ for the integer powers of a fixed computable real number $r > 0$. If…

For a fixed alphabet A, an infinite sequence X is said to be normal if every word w over A appears in X with the same frequency as any other word of the same length. A classical result relates normality to finite automata as follows: a…

Let $f(x)=x^n+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\dots+a_0$ be an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients. For a prime $p$ for which $f(x)$ is fully splitting modulo $ p$, we consider $n$ roots $r_i$ of $f(x)\equiv 0\bmod p$ with $0 \le r_1\le\dots\le…

A matrix is given in ``shredded'' form if we are presented with the multiset of rows and the multiset of columns, but not told which row is which or which column is which. The matrix is reconstructible if it is uniquely determined by this…

There are infinite processes (matrix products, continued fractions, $(r,s)$-matrix continued fractions, recurrence sequences) which, under certain circumstances, do not converge but instead diverge in a very predictable way. We give a…

An integer sequence $(a_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ is \emph{MC-finite} if for all $m$, the sequence $a_n \bmod m$ is eventually periodic. There are MC-finite sequences $(a_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ such that the function $F: (m,n) \mapsto a_n…
