Randomness in effective descriptive set theory

An analog of ML-randomness in the effective descriptive set theory setting is studied, where the r.e. objects are replaced by their Π1 counterparts. We prove the analogs of the Kraft-Chaitin Theorem and Schnorr’s Theorem. In the new setting, while K-trivial sets exist that are not hyper-arithmetical, each low for random set is. Finally we study a very strong yet effective randomness notion: Z i...

Randomness via effective descriptive set theory

1.1 Informal introduction to Π1 relations Let 2N denote Cantor space. • A relation B ⊆ N × (2N)r is Π1 if it is obtained from an arithmetical relation by a universal quantification over sets. • If k = 1, r = 0 we have a Π1 set ⊆ N. • If k = 0, r = 1 we have a Π1 class ⊆ 2N. • The relation B is∆1 if both B and its complement are Π1. There is an equivalent representation of Π1 relations where the...
