An extractor is a function that receives some randomness and either "improves" it or produces "new" randomness. There are statistical and algorithmical specifications of this notion. We study an algorithmical one called Kolmogorov…

Nies and Scholz defined quantum Martin-L\"of randomness (q-MLR) for states (infinite qubitstrings). We define a notion of quantum Solovay randomness and show it to be equivalent to q-MLR using purely linear algebraic methods. Quantum…

In this paper we develop the elements of the theory of algorithmic randomness in continuous-time Markov chains (CTMCs). Our main contribution is a rigorous, useful notion of what it means for an individual trajectory of a CTMC to be random.…

This paper proposes an alternative language for expressing results of the algorithmic theory of randomness. The language is more precise in that it does not involve unspecified additive or multiplicative constants, making mathematical…

The notion of probability plays an important role in almost all areas of science and technology. In modern mathematics, however, probability theory means nothing other than measure theory, and the operational characterization of the notion…

For quantum systems with a total dimension greater than six, the positive partial transposition (PPT) criterion is sufficient but not necessary to decide the non-separability of quantum states. Here, we present an Automated Machine Learning…

Bounded-size rules are dynamic random graph processes which incorporate limited choice along with randomness in the evolution of the system. One starts with the empty graph and at each stage two edges are chosen uniformly at random. One of…

We prove various results connected together by the common thread of computability theory. First, we investigate a new notion of algorithmic dimension, the inescapable dimension, which lies between the effective Hausdorff and packing…

The Lovasz Local Lemma (LLL) is a powerful result in probability theory that states that the probability that none of a set of bad events happens is nonzero if the probability of each event is small compared to the number of events that…
