Using an iterative tree construction we show that for simple computable subsets of the Cantor space Hausdorff, constructive and computable dimensions might be incomputable.

Our focus will be on the computably enumerable (c.e.) sets and trivial, non-trivial, Friedberg, and non-Friedberg splits of the c.e. sets. Every non-computable set has a non-trivial Friedberg split. Moreover, this theorem is uniform. V. Yu.…

We initiate the study of computable presentations of real and complex C*-algebras under the program of effective metric structure theory. With the group situation as a model, we develop corresponding notions of recursive presentations and…

Computability relative to a partial function $f$ on the natural numbers can be formalized using the notion of an oracle for this function $f$. This can be generalized to arbitrary partial combinatory algebras, yielding a notion of…

One of the fundamental results in computability is the existence of well-defined functions that cannot be computed. In this paper we study the effects of data representation on computability; we show that, while for each possible way of…

A finite-dimensional unital and associative algebra over $\mathbb{R}$, or what we shall call simply "an algebra" in this paper for short, generalities the construction by which we derive the complex numbers by "adjoining an element $i$" to…

computable functions are defined by abstract finite deterministic algorithms on many-sorted algebras. We show that there exist finite universal algebraic specifications that specify uniquely (up to isomorphism) (i) all abstract computable…

For any class of operators which transform unary total functions in the set of natural numbers into functions of the same kind, we define what it means for a real function to be uniformly computable or conditionally computable with respect…

A set of integers $A$ is computably encodable if every infinite set of integers has an infinite subset computing $A$. By a result of Solovay, the computably encodable sets are exactly the hyperarithmetic ones. In this paper, we extend this…

In computable analysis typically topological spaces with countable bases are considered. The Theorem of Kreitz-Weihrauch implies that the subbase representation of a second-countable $T_0$ space is admissible with respect to the topology…

We exhibit a way of "forcing a functional to be an effective operation" for arbitrary partial combinatory algebras (pcas). This gives a method of defining new pcas from old ones for some fixed functional, where the new partial functions can…

Although there is a somewhat standard formalization of computability on countable sets given by Turing machines, the same cannot be said about uncountable sets. Among the approaches to define computability in these sets, order-theoretic…

We classify essential algebras whose irredundant non-refinable covers consist of primal algebras. The proof is obtained by constructing one to one correspondence between such algebras and partial orders on finite sets. Further, we prove…

A computably presented algebraic field $F$ has a \emph{splitting algorithm} if it is decidable which polynomials in $F[X]$ are irreducible there. We prove that such a field is computably categorical iff it is decidable which pairs of…

We investigate (2,1):1 structures, which consist of a countable set $A$ together with a function $f: A \to A$ such that for every element $x$ in $A$, $f$ maps either exactly one element or exactly two elements of $A$ to $x$. These…

The empty set of course contains no computable point. On the other hand, surprising results due to Zaslavskii, Tseitin, Kreisel, and Lacombe assert the existence of NON-empty co-r.e. closed sets devoid of computable points: sets which are…

For every partial combinatory algebra (pca), we define a hierarchy of extensionality relations using ordinals. We investigate the closure ordinals of pca's, i.e. the smallest ordinals where these relations become equal. We show that the…
