We investigate the connections between computability theory and Nonstandard Analysis. In particular, we investigate the two following topics and show that they are intimately related. (T.1) A basic property of Cantor space $2^{\mathbb{N}}$…
As suggested by the title, it has recently become clear that theorems of Nonstandard Analysis (NSA) give rise to theorems in computability theory (no longer involving NSA). Now, the aforementioned discipline divides into classical and…
The aim of this paper is to highlight a hitherto unknown computational aspect of Nonstandard Analysis. Recently, a number of nonstandard versions of Goedel's system T have been introduced ([2,9,12]), and it was shown in [26] that the…
Kohlenbach's proof mining program deals with the extraction of effective information from typically ineffective proofs. Proof mining has its roots in Kreisel's pioneering work on the so-called unwinding of proofs. The proof mining of…
As suggested by the title, the aim of this paper is to uncover the vast computational content of classical Nonstandard Analysis. To this end, we formulate a template $\mathfrak{CI}$ which converts a theorem of 'pure' Nonstandard Analysis,…
Compactness is one of the core notions of analysis: it connects local properties to global ones and makes limits well-behaved. We study the computational properties of the compactness of Cantor space $2^{\mathbb{N}}$ for uncountable covers.…
We present Nonstandard Analysis by three axioms: the {\em Extension, Transfer and Saturation Principles} in the framework of the superstructure of a given infinite set. We also present several applications of this axiomatic approach to…
We construct the non-standard complex (and real) numbers using the ultrapower method in the spirit of Cauchy's construction of the real numbers. We show that the non-standard complex numbers are a non-archimedean, algebraically closed…
The Loeb measure is one of the cornerstones of Nonstandard Analysis. The traditional development of the Loeb measure makes use of saturation and external sets. Inspired by [13], we give meaning to special cases of the Loeb measure in the…
We examine the convergence properties of sequences of nonnegative real numbers that satisfy a particular class of recursive inequalities, from the perspective of proof theory and computability theory. We first establish a number of results…
This paper outlines new paradigms for real analysis and computability theory in the recently proposed non-Aristotelian finitary logic (NAFL). Constructive real analysis in NAFL (NRA) is accomplished by a translation of diagrammatic concepts…
In 1960s, Dana Scott gave a recursion theoretic characterization of standard systems of countable non-standard models of arithmetic, i.e., collections of sets of standard natural numbers coded in non-standard models. Later, Knight and Nadel…
This application of nonstandard analysis utilizes the notion of the highly-staturated enlargement. These nonstandard methods clarify many aspects of the theory of generalized functions (distributions).
The history of computability theory and and the history of analysis are surprisingly intertwined since the beginning of the twentieth century. For one, \'Emil Borel discussed his ideas on computable real number functions in his introduction…
The Turing machine is one of the simple abstract computational devices that can be used to investigate the limits of computability. In this paper, they are considered from several points of view that emphasize the importance and the…
Almost two decades ago, Wattenberg published a paper with the title 'Nonstandard Analysis and Constructivism?' in which he speculates on a possible connection between Nonstandard Analysis and constructive mathematics. We study Wattenberg's…
Kleene's computability theory based on his S1-S9 computation schemes constitutes a model for computing with objects of any finite type and extends Turing's `machine model' which formalises computing with real numbers. A fundamental…
These lecture notes, to be completed in a later version, offer a short and rigorous introduction to Nostandard Analysis, mainly aimed to reach to a presentation of the basics of Loeb integration, and in particular, Loeb measures. The…
In this paper, we highlight a new computational aspect of Nonstandard Analysis relating to higher-order computability theory. In particular, we prove that the Gandy-Hyland functional equals a primitive recursive functional involving…
This article exemplifies a novel approach to the teaching of introductory differential calculus using the modern notion of ``infinitesimal'' as opposed to the traditional approach using the notion of ``limit''. I illustrate the power of the…
