Algorithmic Randomness for Infinite Time Register Machines
A concept of randomness for infinite time register machines (ITRMs),
resembling Martin-L\"of-randomness, is defined and studied. In particular, we
show that for this notion of randomness, computability from mutually random
reals implies computability and that an analogue of van Lambalgen's theorem
holds
Generalized Effective Reducibility
We introduce two notions of effective reducibility for set-theoretical
statements, based on computability with Ordinal Turing Machines (OTMs), one of
which resembles Turing reducibility while the other is modelled after Weihrauch
reducibility. We give sample applications by showing that certain (algebraic)
constructions are not effective in the OTM-sense and considerung the effective
equivalence of various versions of the axiom of choice
Towards a Church-Turing-Thesis for Infinitary Computations
We consider the question whether there is an infinitary analogue of the
Church-Turing-thesis. To this end, we argue that there is an intuitive notion
of transfinite computability and build a canonical model, called Idealized
Agent Machines (s) of this which will turn out to be equivalent in
strength to the Ordinal Turing Machines defined by P. Koepke
Towards computable analysis on the generalised real line
In this paper we use infinitary Turing machines with tapes of length
and which run for time as presented, e.g., by Koepke \& Seyfferth, to
generalise the notion of type two computability to , where
is an uncountable cardinal with . Then we start the
study of the computational properties of , a real closed
field extension of of cardinality , defined by the
first author using surreal numbers and proposed as the candidate for
generalising real analysis. In particular we introduce representations of
under which the field operations are computable. Finally we
show that this framework is suitable for generalising the classical Weihrauch
hierarchy. In particular we start the study of the computational strength of
the generalised version of the Intermediate Value Theorem
