Infinite time Turing machines with only one tape are in many respects fully as powerful as their multi-tape cousins. In particular, the two models of machine give rise to the same class of decidable sets, the same degree structure and, at…
If we assume the Thesis that any classical Turing machine T, which halts on every n-ary sequence of natural numbers as input, determines a PA-provable formula, whose standard interpretation is an n-ary arithmetical relation f(x1, >..., xn)…
It is known that one can solve semidefinite programs to within fixed accuracy in polynomial time using the ellipsoid method (under some assumptions). In this paper it is shown that the same holds true when one uses the short-step, primal…
We introduce a new type of generalized Turing machines (GTMs), which are intended as a tool for the mathematician who studies computability in Analysis. In a single tape cell a GTM can store a symbol, a real number, a continuous real…
As was well known, in classical computation, Turing machines, circuits, multi-stack machines, and multi-counter machines are equivalent, that is, they can simulate each other in polynomial time. In quantum computation, Yao [11] first proved…
A remarkable new definition of a self-delimiting universal Turing machine is presented that is easy to program and runs very quickly. This provides a new foundation for algorithmic information theory. This new universal Turing machine is…
We show that there exists a universal quantum Turing machine (UQTM) that can simulate every other QTM until the other QTM has halted and then halt itself with probability one. This extends work by Bernstein and Vazirani who have shown that…
We prove that any Turing machine running on inputs of arbitrary length can be simulated by a constant bit-size transformer, as long as the context window is sufficiently long. This improves previous works, which require scaling up either…
We consider a minimal extension of the language of arithmetic, such that the bounded formulas provably total in a suitably-defined theory \`a la Buss (expressed in this new language) precisely capture polytime random functions. Then, we…
Measurements are shown to be processes designed to return figures: they are effective. This effectivity allows for a formalization as Turing machines, which can be described employing computation theory. Inspired in the halting problem we…
We study a generalized version of reversal bounded Turing machines where, apart from several tapes on which the number of head reversals is bounded by r(n), there are several further tapes on which head reversals remain unrestricted, but…
Consider a universal Turing machine that produces a partial or total function (or a binary stream), based on the answers to the binary queries that it makes during the computation. We study the probability that the machine will produce a…
A proof of quantumness is a protocol through which a classical machine can test whether a purportedly quantum device, with comparable time and memory resources, is performing a computation that is impossible for classical computers.…
Foundations of the theory of quantum Turing machines are investigated. The protocol for the preparation and the measurement of quantum Turing machines is discussed. The local transition functions are characterized for fully general quantum…
This paper discusses how to implement certain classes of quantum computer algorithms using classical discrete switching networks that are amenable to implementation in main stream CMOS transistor IC technology. The methods differ from other…
Expanding upon the widely recognized notion of mathematical universality in Turing machines, a concept of thermodynamic universality in Turing machines is introduced. Under the physical Church-Turing thesis, the existence of a…
We introduce a neural stack architecture, including a differentiable parametrized stack operator that approximates stack push and pop operations for suitable choices of parameters that explicitly represents a stack. We prove the stability…
The Turing Machine has two implicit properties that depend on its underlying notion of computing: the format is fully determinate and computations are information preserving. Distributed representations lack these properties and cannot be…
Ising machines are a form of quantum-inspired processing-in-memory computer which has shown great promise for overcoming the limitations of traditional computing paradigms while operating at a fraction of the energy use. The process of…
We consider computations of a Turing machine subjected to noise. In every step, the action (the new state and the new content of the observed cell, the direction of the head movement) can differ from that prescribed by the transition…
