Enumeration Reducibility with Polynomial Time Bounds

نویسنده

  • Charles M. Harris
چکیده

We introduce polynomial time enumeration reducibility (≤pe) and we retrace Selman’s analysis of this reducibility and its relationship with non deterministic polynomial time conjunctive reducibility. We discuss the basic properties of the degree structure induced by ≤pe over the computable sets and we show how to construct meets and joins. We are thus able to prove that this degree structure is dense and to show the existence of two types of lattice embeddings therein.

Enumeration Reducibility, Nondeterministic Computations and Relative Computability of Partial Functions

In a computation using auxiliary informational inputs one can think of the external resource making itself available in different ways. One way is via an oracle as in Turing reducibility, where information is supplied on demand without any time delay. Alternatively the Scott graph model for lambda calculus suggests a situation where new information, only some of it immediately related to the cu...

Constructing Minimal Pairs of Degrees

We prove that there exist sets of natural numbers A and B such that A and B form a minimal pair with respect to Turing reducibility, enumeration reducibility, hyperarithmetical reducibility and hyperenumer-ation reducibility. Relativized versions of this result are presented as well. 1. Introduction In the present paper we consider four kinds of reducibilities among sets of natural numbers: Tur...

Lower Bounds on Random-Self-Reducibility

Informally speaking, a function f is random-self-reducible if, for any x, the computation of f(x) can be reduced to the computation of f on other \randomly chosen" inputs. Such functions are fundamental in many areas of theoretical computer science, including lower bounds, pseudorandom number-generators, interactive proof systems, zero-knowledge, instance-hiding, program-checking, and program-t...

Defining totality in the enumeration degrees

We show that if A and B form a nontrivial K-pair, then there is a semi-computable set C such that A ≤e C and B ≤e C. As a consequence, we obtain a definition of the total enumeration degrees: a nonzero enumeration degree is total if and only if it is the join of a nontrivial maximal K-pair. This answers a long-standing question of Hartley Rogers, Jr. We also obtain a definition of the “c.e. in”...
