We define a family of three related reducibilities, $\leq_T$, $\leq_{tt}$ and $\leq_m$, for arbitrary functions $f,g:X\rightarrow\mathbb R$, where $X$ is a compact separable metric space. The $\equiv_T$-equivalence classes mostly coincide…

We consider various collections of functions from the Baire space X into itself naturally arising in (effective) descriptive set theory and general topology, including computable (equivalently, recursive) functions, contraction mappings,…

Every computable function has to be continuous. To develop computability theory of discontinuous functions, we study low levels of the arithmetical hierarchy of nonuniformly computable functions on Baire space. First, we classify…

Multi-valued functions are common in computable analysis (built upon the Type 2 Theory of Effectivity), and have made an appearance in complexity theory under the moniker search problems leading to complexity classes such as PPAD and PLS…

In this paper we study Weihrauch reducibility for multi-valued functions on represented spaces. We call the corresponding equivalence classes Weihrauch degrees and we show that the corresponding partial order induces a lower semi-lattice…

Weihrauch reducibility is a notion of reducibility between computational problems that is useful to calibrate the uniform computational strength of a multivalued function. It complements the analysis of mathematical theorems done in reverse…

The Weihrauch degrees are a tool to gauge the computational difficulty of mathematical problems. Often, what makes these problems hard is their discontinuity. We look at discontinuity in its purest form, that is, at otherwise constant…

This paper presents categorical formulations of Turing, Medvedev, Muchnik, and Weihrauch reducibilities in Computability Theory, utilizing Lawvere doctrines. While the first notions lend themselves to a smooth categorical presentation,…

In this article, we introduce a notion of reducibility for partial functions on the natural numbers, which we call subTuring reducibility. One important aspect is that the subTuring degrees correspond to the structure of the realizability…

There is a way of assigning a realizability notion to each degree of incomputability. In our setting, we make use of Weihrauch degrees (degrees of incomputability/discontinuity of partial multi-valued functions) to obtain Lifschitz-like…

We identify a notion of reducibility between predicates, called instance reducibility, which commonly appears in reverse constructive mathematics. The notion can be generally used to compare and classify various principles studied in…

In this paper we study a new approach to classify mathematical theorems according to their computational content. Basically, we are asking the question which theorems can be continuously or computably transferred into each other? For this…

We give a partial answer to an important open problem in descriptive set theory, the Decomposability Conjecture for Borel functions on an analytic subset of a Polish space to a separable metrizable space. Our techniques employ deep results…

We study functions from reals to reals which are uniformly degree-invariant from Turing-equivalence to many-one equivalence, and compare them "on a cone." We prove that they are in one-to-one correspondence with the Wadge degrees, which can…

We define the Polish space $\mathcal{R}$ of non-degenerate rank-1 systems. Each non-degenerate rank-1 system can be viewed as a measure-preserving transformation of an atomless, $\sigma$-finite measure space and as a homeomorphism of a…

We examine the computable part of the differentiability hierarchy defined by Kechris and Woodin. In that hierarchy, the rank of a differentiable function is an ordinal less than omega_1 which measures how complex it is to verify…

We provide an explicit S-adic representation of rank one subshifts with bounded spacers and call the subshifts obtained in this way ''Ferenczi subshifts''. We aim to show that this approach is very convenient to study the dynamical behavior…
