Limit on the computational power of $\mathrm{C}$-random strings

计算复杂性 2026-05-20 v2

摘要

We construct a universal decompressor UU for plain Kolmogorov complexity CU\mathrm{C}_U such that the Halting Problem cannot be decided by any polynomial-time oracle machine with access to the set of random strings RCU={x:CU(x)x}R_{\mathrm{C}_U} = \{x : \mathrm{C}_U(x) \ge |x|\}. This result resolves a problem posed by Eric Allender regarding the computational power of Kolmogorov complexity-based oracles.
