Gacs-Kucera Theorem, tightened by Barmpalias and Lewis-Pye, w.t.t.-reduces each infinite sequence to a Kolmogorov--Martin-Lof random one and is broadly used in various Math and CS areas. Its early proofs are somewhat cumbersome, but using…

Leonid Levin (arxiv.org/abs/cs/0503039v14, p.7) published a new (and very nice) proof of G\'acs-Ku\v{c}era's theorem that occupies only a few lines when presented in his style. We try to explain more details and discuss the connection of…

The Ku\v{c}era--G\'{a}cs theorem is a fundamental result in algorithmic randomness. It states that every infinite sequence $X$ is Turing reducible to a Martin-L\"of random $R$. This paper studies resource-bounded analogues of the…

In this paper, we study the power and limitations of computing effectively generic sequences using effectively random oracles. Previously, it was known that every 2-random sequence computes a 1-generic sequence (as shown by Kautz) and every…

By a celebrated result of Ku\v{c}era and Slaman (DOI:10.1137/S0097539799357441), the Martin-L\"of random left-c.e. reals form the highest left-c.e. Solovay degree. Barmpalias and Lewis-Pye (arXiv:1604.00216) strengthened this result by…

We prove that every computably enumerable (c.e.) random real is provable in Peano Arithmetic (PA) to be c.e. random. A major step in the proof is to show that the theorem stating that "a real is c.e. and random iff it is the halting…

In this paper we provide an easy proof of Barmpalias--Lewis-Pye result saying that all computable increasing sequences converging to random reals converge with the same speed (up to a $c+o(1)$ factor) by noting that it immediately follows…

We characterize Weihrauch reducibility in E-PA$^{\omega}$ + QF-AC$^{0,0}$ and all systems containing it by the provability in a linear variant of the same calculus using modifications of G\"odel's Dialectica interpretation that incorporate…

We present a simplified and more intuitive proof of a theorem of Peng and Xiao, which constructs a Lie algebra from any 2-periodic triangulated k-category (satisfying some finiteness assumptions).

This article expands our work in [Ca16]. By its reliance on Turing computability, the classical theory of effectivity, along with effective reducibility and Weihrauch reducibility, is only applicable to objects that are either countable or…

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 lefthanded Lov\'asz local lemma (LLLL) is a generalization of the Lov\'asz local lemma (LLL), a powerful technique from the probabilistic method. We prove a computable version of the LLLL and use it to effectivize a collection of…

We give new proofs for the hardness amplification of efficiently samplable predicates and of weakly verifiable puzzles which generalize to new settings. More concretely, in the first part of the paper, we give a new proof of Yao's XOR-Lemma…

We prove that the problem of deciding the consequence relation of the full Lambek calculus with weakening is complete for the class HAck of hyper-Ackermannian problems (i.e., level F_{\omega}^{\omega} of the ordinal-indexed hierarchy of…

Turing progressions have been often used to measure the proof-theoretic strength of mathematical theories. Turing progressions based on $n$-provability give rise to a $\Pi_{n+1}$ proof-theoretic ordinal. As such, to each theory $U$ we can…

Kucera and Gacs independently showed that every infinite sequence is Turing reducible to a Martin-Lof random sequence. This result is extended by showing that every infinite sequence S is Turing reducible to a Martin-Lof random sequence R…

We show that when certain statements are provable in subsystems of constructive analysis using intuitionistic predicate calculus, related sequential statements are provable in weak classical subsystems. In particular, if a $\Pi^1_2$…

We conclude from Goedel's Theorem VII of his seminal 1931 paper that every recursive function f(x_{1}, x_{2}) is representable in the first-order Peano Arithmetic PA by a formula [F(x_{1}, x_{2}, x_{3})] which is algorithmically verifiable,…

A famous conjecture of Graham asserts that every set $A \subseteq \mathbb{Z}_p \setminus \{0\}$ can be ordered so that all partial sums are distinct. Although this conjecture was recently proved for sufficiently large primes by Pham and…

Many constructions in computability theory rely on "time tricks". In the higher setting, relativising to some oracles shows the necessity of these. We construct an oracle~$A$ and a set~$X$, higher Turing reducible to~$X$, but for which…
