We propose $\omega$MSO$\Join$BAPA, an expressive logic for describing countable structures, which subsumes and transcends both Counting Monadic Second-Order Logic (CMSO) and Boolean Algebra with Presburger Arithmetic (BAPA). We show that…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a family of sets with VC-codensity less than $2$. We prove that, if $\mathcal{S}$ has the $(\omega, 2)$-property (for any infinitely many sets in $\mathcal{S}$, at least $2$ among them intersect), then $\mathcal{S}$ can…

We consider the arithmetic complexity of index sets of uniformly computably enumerable families learnable under different learning criteria. We determine the exact complexity of these sets for the standard notions of finite learning,…

The Turing degree spectrum of a countable structure $\mathcal{A}$ is the set of all Turing degrees of isomorphic copies of $\mathcal{A}$. The Turing degree of the isomorphism type of $\mathcal{A}$, if it exists, is the least Turing degree…

We complete a 40-year old program on the computability-theoretic analysis of Ramsey's theorem, starting with Jockusch in 1972, and improving a result of Chong, Slaman and Yang in 2014. Given a set $X$, let $[X]^n$ be the collection of all…

We show that, for a certain large class of power-bounded $o$-minimal $\mathcal{L}_T$-theories $T$ whose field of exponents is infinite-dimensional as a vector space over the rationals, any definable set in a $T$-convex valued field…

We study the relative complexity of equivalence relations and preorders from computability theory and complexity theory. Given binary relations $R, S$, a componentwise reducibility is defined by $ R\le S \iff \ex f \, \forall x, y \, [xRy…

Let $A$ be a commutative and unital $\mathbb{R}$-algebra, and $M$ be an Archimedean quadratic module of $A$. We define a submultiplicative seminorm $\|\cdot\|_M$ on $A$, associated with $M$. We show that the closure of $M$ with respect to…

The paper is devoted to prove a version of Milnor-Moore Theorem for connected braided bialgebras that are infinitesimally cocommutative. Namely in characteristic different from 2, we prove that, for a given connected braided bialgebra $A$…

We study the implications of model completeness of a theory for the effectiveness of presentations of models of that theory. It is immediate that for a computable model $\mathcal A$ of a computably enumerable, model complete theory, the…

We prove decidability of the boundedness problem for monadic least fixed-point recursion based on positive monadic second-order (MSO) formulae over trees. Given an MSO-formula phi(X,x) that is positive in X, it is decidable whether the…

We study the combination of two o-minimal extensions of the theory of real closed fields: one by a T-convex subring and the other by a T-derivation. Let T be a complete, model complete o-minimal extension of RCF. We show that the combined…

Assuming that $0^#$ exists, we prove that there is a structure that can effectively interpret its own jump. In particular, we get a structure $\mathcal A$ such that \[ Sp({\mathcal A}) = \{{\bf x}':{\bf x}\in Sp ({\mathcal A})\}, \] where…

SJT reducibility between sets $A,B \subseteq \mathbb N$ is defined by $A \le_{SJT} B$ if for each computable function $h$ that is unbounded and nondecreasing, there is an $h$-bounded uniformly $B$-c.e.\ trace $(T_n)_{n \in \mathbb N} $ such…
