Van Lambalgen's theorem fails for some computable measure
Abstract
Van Lambalgen's theorem states that a pair of bitsequences is Martin-L\"of random if and only if is Martin-L\"of random and is Martin-L\"of random relative to . In [Information and Computation 209.2 (2011): 183-197, Theorem 3.3], Hayato Takahashi generalized van Lambalgen's theorem for computable measures on a product of two Cantor spaces; he showed that the equivalence holds for each for which the conditional probability is computable. He asked whether this computability condition is necessary. We give a positive answer by providing a computable measure for which van Lambalgen's theorem fails. We also present a simple construction of a measure for which conditional measure is not computable. Such measures were first constructed by N. Ackerman, C. Freer and D. Roy in [Proceedings of the 26th Annual IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS), pp. 107-116. IEEE (2011)].
