Every ∆2-Set is Natural, up to Turing Equivalence

چکیده

The Turing degrees of ∆2 sets as well as the degrees of sets in certain upper segments of the Ershov hierarchy are characterized. In particular, it is shown that, up to Turing equivalence and admissible indexing, the noncomputable ∆2 sets are exactly the decision problems of countable partial orders of tree shape with branches of positive finite length only.

Mass problems and randomness

A mass problem is a set of Turing oracles. If P and Q are mass problems, we say that P is weakly reducible to Q if every member of Q Turing computes a member of P . We say that P is strongly reducible to Q if every member of Q Turing computes a member of P via a fixed Turing functional. The weak degrees and strong degrees are the equivalence classes of mass problems under weak and strong reduci...

A Borel equivalence relation on a Polish space is countable if all of its equivalence classes are countable. Standard examples of countable Borel equivalence relations (on the space of subsets of the integers) that occur in recursion theory are: recursive isomorphism, Turing equivalence, arithmetic equivalence, etc. There is a canonical hierarchy of complexity of countable Borel equivalence rel...

Research Proposal: Borel Equivalence Relations

The study of definable equivalence relations on complete separable metric spaces (i.e., Polish spaces) has emerged as a new direction of research in descriptive set theory over the past twenty years. Quotients of such equivalence relations include the orbit space of an ergodic group action, the set of Turing degrees of subsets of natural numbers, and the space of isomorphism classes of countabl...

Is the Turing Jump Unique? Martin’s Conjecture, and Countable Borel Equivalence Relations

In 1936, Alan Turing wrote a remarkable paper giving a negative answer to Hilbert’s Entscheidungsproblem [29]. Restated with modern terminology and in its relativized form, Turing showed that given any infinite binary sequence x ∈ 2ω, the set x′ of Turing machines that halt relative to x is not computable from x. This function x 7→ x′ is now known as the Turing jump, and it has played a singula...
