چکیده

We study generalizations of Demuth’s Theorem, which states that the image of a Martin-Löf random real under a tt-reduction is either computable or Turing equivalent to a Martin-Löf random real. We show that Demuth’s Theorem holds for Schnorr randomness and computable randomness (answering a question of Franklin), but that it cannot be strengthened by replacing the Turing equivalence in the statement of the theorem with wtt-equivalence. We also provide some additional results about the Turing and tt-degrees of reals that are random with respect to some computable measure.

Effective randomness, strong reductions and Demuth’s theorem

We study generalizations of Demuth’s Theorem, which states that the image of a Martin-Löf random real under a tt-reduction is either computable or Turing equivalent to a Martin-Löf random real. We show that Demuth’s Theorem holds for Schnorr randomness and computable randomness (answering a question of Franklin), but that it cannot be strengthened by replacing the Turing equivalence in the stat...

Pubic Randomness in Cryptography

The main contribution of this paper is the introduction of a formal notion of public randomness in the context of cryptography. We show how this notion aaects the deenition of the security of a cryptographic primitive and the deenition of how much security is preserved when one cryptographic primitive is reduced to another. Previous works considered the public random bits as a part of the input...

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...

Spin reduction transition in spin - 32 random Heisenberg chains

Random spin3 2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains are investigated using an asymptotically exact renormalization group. Randomness is found to induce a quantum phase transition between two random-singlet phases. In the strong randomness phase the effective spins at low energies are Se f f5 3 2 , while in the weak randomness phase the effective spins are Se f f5 1 2 . Separating them is a quant...

Improving Tor security against timing and traffic analysis attacks with fair randomization

The Tor network is probably one of the most popular online anonymity systems in the world. It has been built based on the volunteer relays from all around the world. It has a strong scientific basis which is structured very well to work in low latency mode that makes it suitable for tasks such as web browsing. Despite the advantages, the low latency also makes Tor insecure against timing and tr...
