We propose a definition of quantum computable functions as mappings between superpositions of natural numbers to probability distributions of natural numbers. Each function is obtained as a limit of an infinite computation of a quantum…
A set is introreducible if it can be computed by every infinite subset of itself. Such a set can be thought of as coding information very robustly. We investigate introreducible sets and related notions. Our two main results are that the…
Computability on uncountable sets has no standard formalization, unlike that on countable sets, which is given by Turing machines. Some of the approaches to define computability in these sets rely on order-theoretic structures to translate…
The concept of ``countable set'' is attributed to Georg Cantor, who set the boundary between countable and uncountable sets in 1874. The concept of ``computable set'' arose in the study of computing models in the 1930s by the founders of…
We say that a set is exhaustible if it admits algorithmic universal quantification for continuous predicates in finite time, and searchable if there is an algorithm that, given any continuous predicate, either selects an element for which…
Computational problems are classified into computable and uncomputable problems. If there exists an effective procedure (algorithm) to compute a problem then the problem is computable otherwise it is uncomputable. Turing machines can…
We investigate the computability of algebraic closure and definable closure with respect to a collection of formulas. We show that for a computable collection of formulas of quantifier rank at most $n$, in any given computable structure,…
Orbit-finite models of computation generalise the standard models of computation, to allow computation over infinite objects that are finite up to symmetries on atoms, denoted by $\mathbb{A}$. Set theory with atoms is used to reason about…
The Turing machine is one of the simple abstract computational devices that can be used to investigate the limits of computability. In this paper, they are considered from several points of view that emphasize the importance and the…
A sunflower is a family of sets that have the same pairwise intersections. We simplify a recent result of Alweiss, Lovett, Wu and Zhang that gives an upper bound on the size of every family of sets of size $k$ that does not contain a…
A sunflower is a collection of sets $\{U_1,\ldots, U_n\}$ such that the pairwise intersection $U_i\cap U_j$ is the same for all choices of distinct $i$ and $j$. We study sunflowers of convex open sets in $\mathbb R^d$, and provide a…
A finite collection $P$ of finite sets tiles the integers iff the integers can be expressed as a disjoint union of translates of members of $P$. We associate with such a tiling a doubly infinite sequence with entries from $P$. The set of…
The directions of an infinite graph $G$ are a tangle-like description of its ends: they are choice functions that choose compatibly for all finite vertex sets $X\subseteq V(G)$ a component of $G-X$. Although every direction is induced by a…
In computability theory and computable analysis, finite programs can compute infinite objects. Presenting a computable object via any program for it, provides at least as much information as presenting the object itself, written on an…
This paper describes a sequence of natural numbers that grows faster than any Turing computable function. This sequence is generated from a version of the tiling problem, called a coloring system. In our proof that generates the sequence,…
We call a subset of an ordinal $\lambda$ recognizable if it is the unique subset $x$ of $\lambda$ for which some Turing machine with ordinal time and tape, which halts for all subsets of $\lambda$ as input, halts with the final state $0$.…
In this paper, we study classes of structures and individual structures for which programs implementing functions defined everywhere are equivalent to finite tree-programs. The programs under consideration may have cycles and at most…
We define a generalization of the Turing machine that computes on general sets. Our main theorem states that the class of generalized Turing machine computable functions and the class of Set Recursive functions coincide.
Contrary to the classical case, the relation between quantum programming languages and quantum Turing Machines (QTM) has not being fully investigated. In particular, there are features of QTMs that have not been exploited, a notable example…
Sunflowers, or $\Delta$-systems, are a fundamental concept in combinatorics introduced by Erd\H{o}s and Rado in their paper: {\em Intersection theorems for systems of sets}, J. Lond. Math. Soc. (1) {\bf 35} (1960), 85--90. A sunflower is a…
