Complexity of natural numbers

Abstract

This is the English version of the paper: "Complejidad de los n\'umeros naturales", Gaceta de la Real Sociedad Matem\'atica Espa\~nola 3 (2000) 230--250. In this paper, several conjectures about the complexity of natural numbers are proposed. In a recent joint paper with H. Altman "Integer Complexity, stability, and self-similarity" arXiv:2111.00671, we resolve the last of these conjectures. This is why I consider its translation useful now as a reference.
