The Church Problem for Countable Ordinals
2009
Logical Methods in Computer Science
We consider a natural generalization of the Church problem to countable ordinals and investigate games of arbitrary countable length. ...
We prove that determinacy and decidability parts of the Bu}chi and Landweber theorem hold for all countable ordinals and that its full extension holds for all ordinals < \omega\^\omega. ...

Synthesis of Finite-state and Definable Winning Strategies
2009
Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science
We consider two natural generalizations of the Church problem to countable ordinals: the first deals with finite-state strategies; the second deals with MLO-definable strategies. ...
We investigate games of arbitrary countable length and prove the computability of these generalizations of Church's problem. ...

For example, if T is finite, monadic, and Church- Rosser, then the following questions are decidable: (I) Is Mr a group? ...
Orders, reduction graphs and spectra

Theoretical Computer Science
For well-ordered spectra, we show that they can represent all countable successor ordinals. ...
Then, considering constructive ordinals, we address the well-known problem of knowing which ordinals are lambda representable (that is for which ordinal CL there exists a lambda term T such that a is isomorphic ...

On Turing's legacy in mathematical logic and the foundations of mathematics

The Church-Kleene system O of ordinal notations: The number 1 is a notation for the ordinal 0, 2 a is a notation for the successor of |a| and 3 . 5 e is a notation for the supremum of the sequence |an| ...
But for T α to be effectively given, the ordinal α must be computable. This leads to the notion of ordinal notations, i.e., a computable way to assign countable ordinals to natural numbers. ...

On the questions P ?= NP ∩ co-NP and NP ?= co-NP for infinite time Turing machines
[article]
2003
arXiv
pre-print
Schindler recently addressed two versions of the question P ?= NP for Turing machines running in transfinite ordinal time. These versions differ in their definition of input length. ...
The corresponding complexity classes are labelled P, NP and P^+, NP^+. Schindler showed that P ≠ NP and P^+ ≠ NP^+. ...

Summary: “We extend the analysis of the decision problem for modules over a group ring Z[G] to the case in which G is a cyclic group of square-free order. ...
The paper includes a short analysis of the decision problem for the theories of (finitely generated) modules over Z{¢,,,], where m is a positive integer and ¢,,, is a primitive mth root of 1.” ...

Cantor's Proof in the Full Definable Universe

The Australasian Journal of Logic
all objects that can be defined not just in one formal language but by means of the full expressive power of natural language: this universe seems to be countable on one account and uncountable on another ...
Cantor's proof that the powerset of the set of all natural numbers is uncountable yields a version of Richard's paradox when restricted to the full definable universe, that is, to the universe containing ...

Ordinal Recursion Theory
[article]
1996
arXiv
pre-print
In this article, intended for the Handbook of Recursion Theory, we survey recursion theory on the ordinal numbers, with sections devoted to α-recursion theory, β-recursion theory and the study of the admissibility ...
This view is supported by the successful solution of Post's problem for all admissible ordinals (Theorem 2 below). We give here some examples of admissible ordinals: (a) α = ω, the classical case. ...
But this contradicts the well-ordering of ordinals. This proves the claim. It follows from the claim that κ 2 and hence α * 2 is countable. We conclude that α is countable. ...

Decreasing Diagrams with Two Labels Are Complete for Confluence of Countable Systems
2018
International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications
The decreasing diagrams technique is one of the strongest and most versatile methods for proving confluence of abstract reduction systems, it is complete for countable systems, and it has many well-known ...
Surprisingly, we find that two labels suffice for proving confluence for every abstract rewrite system having the cofinality property, thus in particular for every confluent, countable system. ...
Finally, we are thankful to the reviewers for many useful suggestions. ...
