We analyze the pointwise convergence of a sequence of computable elements of L^1(2^omega) in terms of algorithmic randomness. We consider two ways of expressing the dominated convergence theorem and show that, over the base theory RCA_0,…
The notion of Schnorr randomness refers to computable reals or computable functions. We propose a version of Schnorr randomness for subcomputable classes and characterize it in different ways: by Martin L\"of tests, martingales or measure…
We generalise the randomness test definitions in the literature for both the Martin-L\"of and Schnorr randomness of a series of binary outcomes, in order to allow for interval-valued rather than merely precise forecasts for these outcomes,…
We characterize some major algorithmic randomness notions via differentiability of effective functions. (1) As the main result we show that a real number z in [0,1] is computably random if and only if each nondecreasing computable function…
We show that positive measure domination implies uniform almost everywhere domination and that this proof translates into a proof in the subsystem WWKL$_0$ (but not in RCA$_0$) of the equivalence of various Lebesgue measure regularity…
This paper defines a new notion of bounded computable randomness for certain classes of sub-computable functions which lack a universal machine. In particular, we define such versions of randomness for primitive recursive functions and for…
A result of Shen says that if $F\colon2^{\mathbb{N}}\rightarrow2^{\mathbb{N}}$ is an almost-everywhere computable, measure-preserving transformation, and $y\in2^{\mathbb{N}}$ is Martin-L\"of random, then there is a Martin-L\"of random…
The notions of almost everywhere (a.e.) domination and its uniform version were introduced and studied in reverse mathematics. This paper studies these notions from a recursion-theoretic point of view and explore their connections to…
One of the main lines of research in algorithmic randomness is that of lowness notions. Given a randomness notion R, we ask for which sequences A does relativization to A leave R unchanged (i.e., R^A = R)? Such sequences are call low for R.…
We study the statistical properties of random numbers under the Martin-L\"of definition of randomness, proving that random numbers obey analogues of Strong Law of Large Numbers, the Law of the Iterated Logarithm, and that they are normal.…
We show that for each computable ordinal $\alpha>0$ it is possible to find in each Martin-L\"of random $\Delta^0_2$ degree a sequence $R$ of Cantor-Bendixson rank $\alpha$, while ensuring that the sequences that inductively witness $R$'s…
Within the last fifteen years, a program of establishing relationships between algorithmic randomness and almost-everywhere theorems in analysis and ergodic theory has developed. In harmonic analysis, Franklin, McNicholl, and Rute…
We investigate which infinite binary sequences (reals) are effectively random with respect to some continuous (i.e., non-atomic) probability measure. We prove that for every n, all but countably many reals are n-random for such a measure,…
A real number \alpha is called recursively enumerable if there exists a computable, increasing sequence of rational numbers which converges to \alpha. The randomness of a recursively enumerable real \alpha can be characterized in various…
We study generalizations of Demuth's Theorem, which states that the image of a Martin-L\"of random real under a tt-reduction is either computable or Turing equivalent to a Martin-L\"of random real. We show that Demuth's Theorem holds for…
A concept of randomness for infinite time register machines (ITRMs), resembling Martin-L\"of-randomness, is defined and studied. In particular, we show that for this notion of randomness, computability from mutually random reals implies…
We reformulate slightly Russell's notion of typicality, so as to eliminate its circularity and make it applicable to elements of any first-order structure. We argue that the notion parallels Martin-L\"{o}f (ML) randomness, in the sense that…
We elaborate the notions of Martin-L\"of and Schnorr randomness for real numbers in terms of uniform distribution of sequences. We give a necessary condition for a real number to be Schnorr random expressed in terms of classical uniform…
Let f be a computable function from finite sequences of 0's and 1's to real numbers. We prove that strong f-randomness implies strong f-randomness relative to a PA-degree. We also prove: if X is strongly f-random and Turing reducible to Y…
Schnorr showed that a real is Martin-Loef random if and only if all of its initial segments are incompressible with respect to prefix-free complexity. Fortnow and independently Nies, Stephan and Terwijn noticed that this statement remains…
