متن کاملEven Accelerating Machines are Not Universal
We draw an analogy between Godel's Incompleteness Theorem in mathematics, and the impossibility of achieving a Universal Computer in computer science. Speci cally, Godel proved that there exist formal systems of mathematics that are consistent but not complete. In the same way, we show that there does not exist a general-purpose computer that is universal in the sense of being able to simulat...
متن کاملSome properties are not even partially testable
For a property P and a sub-property P , we say that P is P -partially testable with q queries if there exists an algorithm that distinguishes, with high probability, inputs in P ′ from inputs ǫ-far from P by using q queries. There are natural properties that require many queries to test, but can be partitioned into a small number of subsets for which they are partially testable with very few qu...
