In the paper we develop the $p$-adic theory of discrete automata. Every automaton $\mathfrak A$ (transducer) whose input/output alphabets consist of $p$ symbols can be associated to a continuous (in fact, 1-Lipschitz) map from $p$-adic…

We define a class of functions termed "Computable in the Limit", based on the Machine Learning paradigm of "Identification in the Limit". A function is Computable in the Limit if it defines a property P_p of a recursively enumerable class A…

In the previous work, we have given a novel, game-semantic model of computation in an intrinsic, non-inductive and non-axiomatic manner, which is similar to Turing machines but beyond computation on natural numbers, e.g., higher-order…
