We present a description of the (non-modular) commutator, inspired by that of Kearnes in~\cite[p.~930]{MR1358491}, that provides a simple recipe for computing the commutator.

We develop synthetic notions of oracle computability and Turing reducibility in the Calculus of Inductive Constructions (CIC), the constructive type theory underlying the Coq proof assistant. As usual in synthetic approaches, we employ a…

We present an extension to the $\mathtt{mathlib}$ library of the Lean theorem prover formalizing the foundations of computability theory. We use primitive recursive functions and partial recursive functions as the main objects of study, and…

Mathematical induction is a fundamental tool in computer science and mathematics. Henkin initiated the study of formalization of mathematical induction restricted to the setting when the base case B is set to singleton set containing 0 and…

In Chapter 3 of his Notes on constructive mathematics, Martin-L{\"o}f describes recursively constructed ordinals. He gives a constructively acceptable version of Kleene's computable ordinals. In fact, the Turing definition of computable…

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…

Kawamura and Cook specified the least set of information about a continuous function on the unit interval which is needed for fast function evaluation. This paper presents a variation of their result. To make the above statement precise,…

We investigate partial functions and computability theory from within a constructive, univalent type theory. The focus is on placing computability into a larger mathematical context, rather than on a complete development of computability…

Many potentially non-terminating functions cannot be directly defined in a logic of total functions, such as HOL. A well-known solution to this is to define non-terminating functions using a clock that forces termination at a certain depth…

We study n-monotone functionals, which constitute a generalisation of n-monotone set functions. We investigate their relation to the concepts of exactness and natural extension, which generalise the notions of coherence and natural…

Given a real dataset and a computation family, we wish to encode and store the dataset in a distributed system so that any computation from the family can be performed by accessing a small number of nodes. In this work, we focus on the…

In a constructive setting, no concrete formulation of ordinal numbers can simultaneously have all the properties one might be interested in; for example, being able to calculate limits of sequences is constructively incompatible with…

This article aims to provide a novel formalization of the concept of computational irreducibility in terms of the exactness of functorial correspondence between a category of data structures and elementary computations and a corresponding…

Intensionality is a phenomenon that occurs in logic and computation. In the most general sense, a function is intensional if it operates at a level finer than (extensional) equality. This is a familiar setting for computer scientists, who…

Any function can be constructed using a hierarchy of simpler functions through compositions. Such a hierarchy can be characterized by a binary rooted tree. Each node of this tree is associated with a function which takes as inputs two…

We study the nonclassical correlations in a two-qubit state by the perturbing local unitary operation method. We find that the definitions of various non-classicalities including quantum discord (QD), measurement-induced nonlocality (MIN)…

The principle goal of computational mechanics is to define pattern and structure so that the organization of complex systems can be detected and quantified. Computational mechanics developed from efforts in the 1970s and early 1980s to…

The set of integer number lists with finite length, and the set of binary trees with integer labels are both countably infinite. Many inductively defined types also have countably many elements. In this paper, we formalize the syntax of…
