Some Questions of Uniformity in Algorithmic Randomness

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The Omega numbers-the halting probabilities of universal prefix-free machines-are known to be exactly the Martin-L{"o}f random left-c.e. reals. We show that one cannot uniformly produce, from a Martin-L{"o}f random left-c.e. real alpha, a universal prefix-free machine U whose halting probability is alpha. We also answer a question of Barmpalias and Lewis-Pye by showing that given a left-c.e. real alpha, one cannot uniformly produce a left-c.e. real such that alpha -- is neither left-c.e. nor right-c.e.
